Hello dear. Herpes zoster is viral infection and can take 8-10 days for acute infection to heal.
However, as the virus remains in the body, it is not completely curable and can recur especially in immunosuppressed patients
Please consult online for proper evaluation and treatment of post herpetic neuralgia or pain
