Identify the spinal cord structure to which herpes virus retreats after chicken pox.

This causes the typical rash on skin that is seen in chickenpox. The virus then enters that sensory nerves present on the ski and travels along the length of the neurons to the sensory dorsal-root ganglia adjacent to the spinal cord. Here the virus stays in an inactive stage.
