Akki disease is known as Shingles in English.
According to the reference "Shingles (Nagin Disease, Akki Disease) : Symptoms, Causes and Treatment – My Vaccination Hub by GSK", Akki disease is listed alongside Nagin Disease as alternative names for Shingles.
Shingles is a painful viral infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus, which is the same virus that causes chickenpox. After someone has had chickenpox, the virus remains dormant in the body's nerve tissues. Years later, the virus can reactivate and cause shingles.
Common characteristics associated with Shingles (Akki Disease) typically include:
- A painful rash that usually appears on one side of the body or face.
- Blisters that may break open and crust over.
- Burning, numbness, tingling, or itching in the affected area.
While the reference title also mentions symptoms, causes, and treatment, the direct English equivalent for "Akki Disease" provided is "Shingles".
