A skin trouble to be aware of before the full-fledged summer. That is 'shingles' (taijohoshin). Shingles is a disease where a band-like red rash and blisters appear along a nerve on either the left or right side of the body. It is said that shingles is more likely to develop when immunity is lowered due to summer fatigue or physical exhaustion. The incidence of shingles increases after the age of 50, but in recent years, the incidence rate among people in their 20s to 40s has also been rising, making it a disease that anyone can get. The most important thing in treating shingles is early treatment. Therefore, this time, we had a specialist teach us how to identify the early symptoms of shingles and how to prevent it.
