The transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) signaling pathway is closely related to herpes zoster (HZ) and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been involved in regulating the TRPV1 signaling pathway in several ways, and has been used to treat HZ and PHN by modulating the aberrant release of TRPV1-associated neuropeptides and inflammatory factors, and neurogenic inflammatory response, etc. This paper summarizes the mechanism and role of TCM in regulating TRPV1 signaling pathway in the treatment of HZ and PHN in recent years, which will provide new ideas for the treatment of HZ and PHN and drug development.
