Contraindications for the treatment of herpes zoster
1. Aspirin should be used with caution in patients with diabetes
Aspirin and other analgesics should be used with caution in patients with diabetes, as aspirin promotes the release of glucagon, which can cause an increase in blood sugar levels.
2. Aspirin should be used with caution in patients with peptic ulcers
Aspirin itself has a stimulating effect on the gastric mucosa and can inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins that have protective effects, which can aggravate the damage to patients with peptic ulcers and cause or worsen bleeding.
Warm reminder: Patients with herpes zoster should avoid spicy and hot foods such as alcohol, smoking, ginger, chili, lamb, beef, and fried foods, as they can easily generate heat. According to traditional Chinese medicine, this disease is caused by the accumulation of damp-heat and toxic substances in the skin, so patients with this disease should avoid the above-mentioned spicy and hot foods.
