The cause is the varicella-jooster virus.The first time it infects a person produces the chickenpox.Subsequently, the virus is latent in the sensitive nerve and can be reactivated throughout life.In this case, it produces the herpes zoster that is characterized by skin lesions on the affected nerve path.Diabetics have 3 times more risk of having the disease than non -diabetic (but well ... as with many other infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, legionellosis, etc).Diabetes produces a certain degree of immunosionion that facilitates the appearance of some infectious (what are we going to do?)
I edit and take advantage to remind you that the flu vaccination campaign has already started.Diabetes is one of the most important risk factors of serious complications (and if you can put the tetravalent better than trivalent)

Abasaglar 25U (noche)
Novorapid 4/6/6 (y lo que caiga por enmedio)
Glicosilada (30/4/19): 6.5
