Postherpetic Neuralgia
Posted , 7 users are following.
Having suffered PHN for 13 months, I would like to share with fellow sufferers who may need some help in their treatment of this terrible complaint. After coping with the initial Shingles problems, I discovered a very effective treatment for PHN pain, with minimal need for supplementary analgesics.
The formula is 250 grams of Invite Vitamin E Cream, two 5 gram tubes of Aciclovir Cream, 65 grams of Dencorub Heat Gel.
Mix thoroughly, apply sparingly to the affected areas, as required for pain relief. This treatment works immediately, and normally gives relief for 2 to 12 hours, depending on application frequency.
It reduces the need for long term analgesics, which can have harmful affects on other parts of the body.
It is worth a try if you have chronic Herpetic Neuralgia, and your present treatment is unsatisfactory. Also, one Evening Primrose Capsule per day is useful for pain relief. Best of luck in your search for an effective treatment.

This treatment has reduced my pain dramatically, and I have not had a need for supplementary analgesics for many months. Dencorub Heat Gel does not cause discomfort to the body region, but it should be avoided close to the eyes. I meant to say the treatment is not expensive, as the mixture normally lasts 2 to 4 months, depending on the frequency of applications.Sometimes it is better to accept a proven treatment than rely on expert opinion.

Are these over the counter products? I remember using the Acyclovir but I needed a prescription(for the pills). Do you also need a prescription from the Doctor for the acyclovir cream?
Thanks!

I purchase at a discount chemist. Costs: Invite Vitamin E Cream $15, Aciclovir Cream $7 per tube, Dencorub Heat Gel $5 per 100 gram tube.
I welcome your interest in this treatment. Best of luck in obtaining the ingredients.

This treatment works very well, and is not expensive if used sparingly. I keep a spare tube of Aciclover cream for any strange eruptions, and find it very successful in avoiding any future Shingles Outbreaks.
I am sure you will get great relief from this treatment.
Best of luck, Ray.

Yes I did follow up on your remedy.
In fact my chemist made it up for me. But honesty I'm not sure that it has the same effect on me as it does for you., I feel it is helping a little and will continue to use it
All the best

I am sure you will get great benefit from this treatment in the long term.
I have now been using it for 12 months, and have reduced treatment to twice a day for the last 6 months.
I have found that a separate tube of Aciclover cream is essential in preventing any future outbreaks of shingles. If treated immediately these outbreaks do not continue to develop and they disappear over a two week period.
Kind regards Ray

Yes, I will continue to use it and have the Aciclover on my chemist list for this afternoon!
All the best for now.

I started with this treatment soon after the shingles rash healed.
Initially I was taking ibuprofen tablets every 4 to 5 hours, as required for pain relief. At the same time I was using the mixture every 2 to 4 hours, as required for pain relief. Night treatment was more frequent in order to reduce pain and get back to sleep.
After a few months I did not need analgesics, and only used the treatment for
Slowly I extended the analgesics and the treatment as the need for pain relief became less. After a few months I did not need analgesics, and only needed to apply the treatment four times each day. After about six months I found it was only necessary to apply the treatment two times each day to eliminate most of the pain.
It is a long process, but definately worth the effort.

But I will continue with your remedy.
I have very little pain, it's just the incredible, continuous itch that causes me such distress plus the sensitivity, soreness and tightness around the left side of forehead and eyebrow.

I am sure you will get a steady improvement
from this treatment as the Aciclovir cream seems to have a continued antiviral affect. I find this treatment drastically reduces my need for analgesics.
Kind regards
