困扰，如果这里有专家能指点一下，不胜感激。朋友描述的具体情况如下：
去年九月底得了带状疱疹，位置在左手手臂和左手，当时的诊证是整个手臂出了水泡，
手掌上也出了水泡，马上到嘉兴武警总院住院治疗。大约一个多月，当时整个手掌是又
红又肿，大了一倍。一天只能睡二到三个小时，痛的无法入睡，医生看的策手无措。在
到杭州邵逸夫医院找医学博士看，用日本进口的微波治疗仪照射，做理疗。医生用了最
好的止痛药和止痛贴片，也无法止痛。而且副作用超大，根本没用，就到北方去求中药
治疗。过年也没有回家，一直到今年8月15日回家。看了至少近三十位医生，现在的症
状是手掌看上去是正常的了，只是手肘约二寸痛，手掌掌心感觉好像有炎症一样的，胀
痛。主要是带状疱诊后遗神经痛，无法根治。在北方最后一位名医那里看，喝中药加针
灸一个多月，他说只能治到这样的了，给我们配了一点外面涂的药水，不过不是很管用
。所以我想打扰你一下，美国不知有没有治疗带状疱疹后遗神经痛的特效药？最好副作
用小的，有没有治疗这个病的外用药水或什么的？
谢谢了！ | g*****j

time after the main wound heals. The virus travels along the sensory
nerves, which contributes to the problem. However, most patients recover
completely after several months. | r*****h

persist for months to years. Although the cause is not completely
understood, it occurs more frequently in elderly. Early anti-viral
treatment in the acute phase of zoster eruption can shorten the duration of
illness, and minimize long term morbidity. However, it is no longer an
option for your uncle.
Pain from herpes zoster is difficult to treat with common analgesics. In US
