"I have had PHN for 2 years and have been in extreme pain. My internist told me about Zostrix HP along with the warning to be careful applying it and to wash it off my hands. I started using latex gloves to administer it on my body, and after 2 weeks my pain began to subside. I am now at a very manageable pain level. On a 1-10, with 10 being the highest pain, I am now finally at 0.5 (point five) after 2 years of being at a pain level of 10 day and night. I use it sparingly (pea-sized amount) 3-4 times a day. I highly recommend it if you had shingles and then PHN."
