Complications of herpes zoster, such as postherpetic neuralgia and postherpetic pruritus, can reduce the patient's quality of life if not controlled. To control this, oral medications and various interventions may be tried to treat post-herpetic neuralgia and pruritis. However, if these conservative treatments are not effective, postherpetic neuralgia and pruritis can progress to chronic intractable neuropathic state. Here in, we report a case that subcutaneous injection of botulinum toxin type A was effective in a patient with postherpetic neuralgia and pruritis.
