ABSTRACT
Herpes zoster in infancy is rare but can develop following intrauterine or postnatal exposure to Varicella zoster virus. We report a case of herpes zoster in a 5-month-old male baby, whose mother had varicella infection at 5-months of gestation. He was treated with acyclovir and first generation cephalosporin for herpes zoster with staphylococcal skin infection
