Herpes zoster, also known as shingles, is a viral syndrome caused by reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus. After an episode of varicella (chicken-pox), the varicella-zoster virus remains dormant in the nervous system. Herpes zoster typically occurs in adults or elderly. This activity outlines the presentation, evaluation, and management of shingles and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in managing patients with this condition.
