It is caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, which also causes chickenpox. Shingles is characterized by a painful rash and can lead to complications such as postherpetic neuralgia. The infection typically presents as a localized, blistering rash along a dermatome corresponding to the affected nerves.

No, chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which is a type of herpesvirus. It primarily follows a lytic cycle, leading to the acute symptoms of chickenpox. However, after the initial infection, VZV can enter a lysogenic phase by establishing latency in nerve cells, which can later reactivate as shingles. Thus, while it can have a latent phase, the primary infection is not lysogenic.
