Description
English: Progression of shingles. A cluster of small bumps (1) turns into blisters (2) that resemble chickenpox lesions. The blisters fill with pus, break open (3), crust over (4), and finally disappear. This process takes four to five weeks. A painful condition called post-herpetic neuralgia can sometimes occur. This condition is thought to be caused by damage to the nerves (5), and can last from weeks to years after the rash disappears.
Español: Evolución del herpes zóster o culebrilla: Un grupo de pequeñas protuberancias (1) se convierten en ampollas (2) que se asemejan a lesiones de la varicela. Las ampollas se llenan de pus, se abren (3), forman una costra (4), y finalmente desaparecen. Este proceso tarda de cuatro a cinco semanas. Algunas veces sobreviene la llamada neuralgia post-herpética, que cursa con dolor. Esta neuralgia puede estar causada por daño a los nervios (5), y puede durar desde semanas hasta años después de que la erupción haya desaparecido.
