Shingles is a viral infection that causes a rash with marks on your torso, face, or neck and it appears to be an insect bite. It is also known as herpes zoster and s most certainly not an insect bite but it seems to be.
People often confuse it for a spider or an insect bite and realize later that it could be something severe. It can happen to anyone at any given time and usually affects older people who have a weaker immune system. Thus, stress is often linked to shingles as stress points to a lower immune system and several chronic diseases. The virus stays intact within your body and sometimes it can reactivate at a later stage in life.
Stress And Shingles Are Linked Together Because Of Some Reasons Mentioned Bellow:
Emotional stress is considered to be a trigger for causing shingles to reactivate as stress leads to a weaker immune system. People who are going through high levels of trauma, a sudden loss, or chronic work life that leads to situations of dealing with stress and anxiety will weaken the immune system. The itching, redness, and burning will last longer for people with lower immunity. A weak immune system limits a patient from speedy recovery and keeps them in pain for a longer period of time.
