Blisters in the ear of a 17 year old male patient with Ramsay Hunt syndrome. This is a neurological disorder caused by the varicella-zoster virus (the same virus that causes chickenpox and shingles). It causes a painful rash, typically around the ear, and symptoms of facial paralysis or weakness. Treatment for Ramsay Hunt syndrome includes antiviral medications, corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and painkillers. | |
