Research
VZV causes a variety of vibratory sensation and proprioception in both legs
neurologic complications, including
- Post-herpetic neuralgia
- Polyradiculoneuritis,
- Transverse myelitis, v
- Vasculopathy,
- Aseptic menengitis,
- Leukoencephalopathy,
- Dorsal root or cranial nerve ganglionitis,
- Ventriculitis,
- Necrotising angiitis and
- Meningoencephalitis
Tissue Salt Remedies
FP: First drug
KM: When the vesicles are opened
KS: When the crusting became established
SIL: For chronic late side effects
Remedies
1. ARS
2. Sul, Merc
3. Thuj, Ran-b, Iris, Nat-m, Sep, Rhus-t, Canth
4. Agar, Arg-n, Cocc, Mez, Zinc, Nat-c
