Ramsay Hunt Syndrome

Ramsay Hunt syndrome, or herpes zoster oticus, occurs when the varicella-zoster virus reactivates and spreads to the facial nerves near your inner ear. The varicella-zoster virus is the same virus that causes chickenpox and shingles (herpes zoster). Treatment for the condition may include medications including antivirals and corticosteroids.
