A member asked:
How can i reduce pain after an attack of herpes zoster on the right forehead which also damaged my right eye?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor: The pain that occurs with an active zoster lesion often requires narcotics for control. A few patients will experience long-term pain after the zoster has cleared. This is from nerve damage and can be treated with many medications. You will need to see your doctor for pain management.
