How to Naturally Treat Shingles Pain

Shingles, which are also known as Herpes Zoster, is known by the painful blisters and rashes on the skin. Shingles outbreaks are often known by their constant pain and discomfort. Luckily, most people suffering from shingles can relieve the pain through natural remedies.

Instructions

1. Use Capsaicin cream on the areas affected by shingles. Capsaicin, which is the part of chile peppers that make them so hot, can actually interfere with the pain signals in the brain. Capsaicin cream can be applied to the more painful areas directly.

2. Take Rhus Tox daily or when you need help controlling the pain. Rhus Tox is a homeopathic remedy that can be used to help relieve the pain caused by shingles. Follow the dosage suggestions every few hours, or as needed.

3. Consider Acupuncture as an option for pain management. Acupuncture can be done regularly to help relieve pain in patients that suffer from shingles for longer periods of time. It works especially well in patients that are over the age of 70 and have had shingles for more than a couple of months.
