Abstract EN
We report an adult female patient who presented with sacral radiculopathy as incapacitating dysthesias following primary genital herpes simplex, which later recurred.
Despite use of systemic antiviral treatment, the painful syndrome in our patient persisted.
The success in treatment was seen only after the addition of amitriptyline hydrochloride.
The case is being presented here for its rare manifestation and novel use of amitriptyline hydrochloride.
