Eight cases of herpes zoster with severe neuralgic pain were treated by repeated stellate blocks, 5 during the acute stage and the 3 others later on. Of the 5 patients treated during the acute stage 3 were cured, the pain disappearing completely. Four other patients were substantially improved. Only one case was a failure. It is important to begin the injections soon after the beginning of the illness, preferably in the first couple of weeks after the rash appears.
