Abstract
Zoster-associated pain (ZAP) in patients with herpes zoster (HZ) may persist for a long time, occurring even years after the rash has healed. In this case, the patient is diagnosed as having postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Prodromal symptoms can present with constant or intermittent pain, and are often accompanied by other symptoms, resulting in misdiagnosis and/or inappropriate treatment. The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristics of the prodromal symptoms of ZAP through a multicenter study in Korea.
