The daughter of legendary Austrian singer Udo Jürgens, Jenny Jürgens (57), is giving her Instagram followers an insight into her battle against shingles. 

The singer has been suffering from the painful symptoms of the viral disease for 14 days and is documenting her road to recovery on social media.

What she initially thought was a "sun allergy from NYC" turned out to be "shingles zoster herpes" on her face and the entire right side of her head. "I've never had anything so painful in my life," she confessed.

Harsh medication and strict sunlight reduction
In her latest post, Jürgens reports on the end of the "harsh medication", which robbed her of energy but at the same time curbed the risk of post-zoster neuralgia. Although the wounds are healing slowly, they are getting smaller. Aloe vera, cortisone cream and patience are now her allies in the fight against the disease.

"It's a shame not to go out in the sun when the weather is nice, but you know what for," says Jürgens. To strengthen her immune system, she relies on infusions of folic acid, vitamins C and B, Othomol plus Immune, garlic-lemon decoction, lysine and magnesium.

Gratitude and educational work
Jürgens is infinitely grateful to her husband, director David Carreras Solé, for his support during this difficult time. "Without you, I don't know what it would have been like," she writes in her post.

She also uses her platform to raise awareness about shingles. "Many of you thanked me for my reporting and got vaccinated as a result," she says happily. "And I've seen how unknown shingles is in people's minds. It was the same for me ... until I got it."

Appeal to the public
Jürgens appeals to her followers to get vaccinated against shingles. "If you had chickenpox as a child, it's lying dormant inside you. The varicella zoster herpes. It can break out with stress or a weak immune system. And it's really painful!" she warns.

With her open and honest approach to her illness, Jenny Jürgens hopes to encourage other sufferers and at the same time raise awareness of shingles.
