1. What causes snake gall bladder sores?

Herpes zoster is a very painful viral disease characterized by the invasion of nerves by the herpes virus (varicella-zoster virus VZV), which causes severe nerve pain in the area innervated by the nerve and segmental herpes on the skin. An acute inflammatory skin disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus, known in traditional Chinese medicine as "waist-wrapped fire dragon" or "waist-wrapped fire dan", is commonly known as "spider sores". Its main feature is clustered blisters distributed in a clustered band along the peripheral nerves on one side, accompanied by obvious neuralgia. The initial infection manifests as chickenpox, and the virus can then remain dormant in the dorsal root ganglia of the spinal cord for a long time. Weakened immune function can induce the varicella-zoster virus to become active again, grow and multiply, spread along the peripheral nerves to the skin, and cause herpes zoster.
