 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 6 Microwave and wound care in the treatment of herpes zoster role [Abstract] Objective To investigate the microwave and wound care in the treatment of herpes zoster in the role. Methods 83 patients were to be anti-viral, nerve nutrition therapy at the same time re-microwave once a day for a week exposure, large blisters, we must first extract blisters , and then cover 1% gentian violet solution. Results After 1 week, 83 patients had varying degrees of ease the pain, blisters dried up, receded. Conclusions of microwave assisted and wound care to play in the treatment of herpes zoster pain relief, shorten the course of treatment, to avoid the role of infection, thereby reducing the incidence of sequelae neuralgia. Shingles is caused by the varicella zoster virus infection of the skin and nerves caused by inflammation, the clinical features of peripheral nerve distribution along one side of the cluster set is characterized by small blisters, often accompanied by significant neuralgia, herpes zoster clinical The treatment is mainly dissipated as soon as possible blister, nerve pain, to avoid the aftermath, our department in April 2009 -2010 in October by microwave assisted therapy, 83 patients while strengthening local care, to achieve better efficacy, now nursing summarized as follows: 1 Materials and Methods 1.1 General information: 83 patients were in April 2009 -2010 in October I out-patient treatment of patients, including 35 males and 48 cases female, aged 16-78 years, mean age 43 years, shingles occurs in 40 cases of chest and back, limbs in 28 cases, 12 cases of head and face. 1.2 Treatment: In the conventional anti-virus, nutrition, treatment of nerve while using the GW-92-C-type microwave radiation treatment machine, once a week, the output power of 16W, after cooling, the spot diameter of 10cm, from 2-3cm, each irradiation asked whether the discomfort of patients during wound blisters, first taking a large b
