17. After a person recovers from the chickenpox, the virus can lie dormant in the dorsal root ganglion in mutiple levels of the spinal cord and cranial nerves. Later in life, the virus can be deactivated and travel within a sensory neuron to cause shingles. Do you think it is possible to get shingles more than once ? Why or why not ?

Yes, it is possible to get shingles more than once.

Explanation:

Women are more likely to have shingles a second time more than men.

The longer the post herpetic neuralgia ( pain after shingles) the higher the chances of recurrence.

If shingles comes back, it may occur on another side of the body. This is because, once you have had chicken pox, the virus remains in the nerve. When the virus then reactivates the infected nerves become inflamed and when the virus reaches the skin, the rash appears.
