PHN exists after 3 months of herpes zost
Hi All,
I suffered from Herpes Zoster in March. Now that is gone and rash is also healing slowly. But now I suffer from post hepatic neuralgia. I have numbing pain in my forehead where the infection was there before. When I touch forehead where the infection was before I get numbness feeling and tingling feeling on the top of head where the infection was before.
Please suggest some remedies.

Hi there. It seems to be post herpetic neuralgia only by your description. It is treatable but I will have to explain you about the medicines available and their potential side effects ( which are minor but need to be told). It will need a detailed discussion with you for proper treatment.
Next Steps
Please take online consultation with a neurologist
