Summary
This study investigates the relationship between neuropathic pain characteristics and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndromes in patients with Herpes Zoster (HZ). The study aims to integrate objective pain assessment tools, such as the Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs (LANSS) scale, with TCM diagnostic classifications to enhance individualized treatment strategies. Conducted at Le Van Thinh Hospital, Vietnam, this cross-sectional study includes 80 HZ patients, assessing their pain levels and corresponding TCM syndromes. The findings will contribute to a more comprehensive approach to pain management in Herpes Zoster.
