Postherpetic pain persisting one month or longer occurs in 9% to 14% of patients with herpes zoster, diminishing with time. The incidence and duration are directly related to age. The pathologic features have been described but the pathogenesis of postherpetic neuralgia is unknown. Treatment remains difficult.

CHRONIC POSTHERPETIC NEURALGIA
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1956• The course of postherpetic neuralgia was studied in 35 patients, some of whom had suffered severely for more than three years. All of the patients were over 40 years of age. The sexes were almost equally affected. The thoracic nerves were involved most frequently, and the trigeminal nerves next. Five patients with trigeminal involvement were treated

POSTHERPETIC TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA
Archives of Neurology And Psychiatry, 1951THE PAIN which may follow herpes zoster may be so severe as to lead to suicide (Forget 1 ). William Bowman 2 wrote (1867): "I wish I could state anything very satisfactory as to the treatment of the after-pains, which are sometimes so severe as to make the patient weary of existence." In 1901 Mules 3 reported a case in which the pains were so violent ...

Abstract This is a brief abstract of postherpetic neuralgia. Post-herpetic neuralgia can be a troubling diagnosis, but it is also known as a classic example of a neuropathic pain condition and is well studied. It provides a clear example of how a peripheral nerve change can lead to dysfunction of the central nervous system.

Despiramine Relieves Postherpetic Neuralgia
Survey of Anesthesiology, 1990Desipramine has the least anticholinergic and sedative effects of the first generation tricyclic antidepressant agents, but its pain-relieving potential has received little study. Other antidepressant agents--notably amitriptyline--are known to ameliorate postherpetic neuralgia, but those agents are often toxic.

Although there is some variability (depending on the definition of postherpetic neuralgia), about 10% of those with zoster will have persisting pain 1 month after the rash.The main risk factor for postherpetic neuralgia is increasing age; it is uncommon in people aged 30% of those people aged >80 years.

Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) after acute herpes zoster ophthalmicus involves unilateral pain persisting or recurring for at least 3 months in the distribution of one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve. Patients often describe the pain associated with PHN as a deep aching or burning, dysesthetic, hyperesthetic, or electric shock-like sensation ...

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) causes two clinically distinct diseases: varicella and herpes zoster. Herpes zoster, recurrent infection of VZV occurs when the cell-mediated immunity to VZV declines. Since the cell-medicated immunity to VZV declines with aging, herpes zoster occurs more frequently in the elderly.
