## Caption

You’ve probably seen it in the news that Justin Bieber was recently diagnosed with a condition called Ramsay hunt syndrome that has resulted in him canceling his upcoming shows.

There have been lots of videos talking about this condition and his diagnosis also with a lot of misinformation online; so this video is just a quick summary on what Ramsay hunt syndrome is.

Ramsey hunt syndrome is a major complication of herpes zoster or shingles which is a reactivation of the varicella zoster virus which is responsible for chickenpox. 

If you’ve had chickenpox in the past you are at risk of developing shingles or herpes zoster in the future due to a potential reactivation of the virus.

PS Tried to run through all the facts as fast as I could  but Couldn’t fit it all under 90seconds so will post the second part as a different video. Apologies for the inconvenience. 

Also note that although not common, It is possible to have more than one episode of chicken pox and shingles.
