Other Treatment Options in Addition to
Laser for Shingles

While Class IV laser therapy is an excellent option for shingles treatment, there are other approaches that can be considered. These include:

• Antiviral Medications: Prescription antiviral drugs can help shorten the duration of the shingles outbreak and reduce its severity.
• Pain Relief Medications: Over-the-counter or prescription painkillers can provide temporary relief from shingles-related discomfort.
• Topical Creams: Certain creams or ointments may help soothe the rash and alleviate itching.
• Nerve Block Injections: In severe cases, nerve block injections may be used to numb the affected nerves and reduce pain.

Consult with a healthcare professional to determine the most suitable treatment plan for your individual condition.
