Hi,
Ive had an awful painful rash on my lower back for ages with various diagnoses and creams from doctors, with no success. Yesterday I had a dental checkup, and my Dentist told meI have mild oral lichen planus...then went on to say it's likely you have in on other parts of your body too. To be honest, I had never heard of it, but having just googled it, I am 99% sure this is what I have on my lower back. I feel relief knowing what it is, but now need relief of the discomfort. I would be grateful for any tips, and has anyone tried Emuaid?

Hi Judith,
I was diagnosed in December, it's unpleasant and can be very sore, I have been prescribed Dermovate and am having good results.

Hi Judith,
I also have erosive oral lichen planus. I was diagnosed by an oral pathologist in December of 2015 after my moms severe stroke. I have struggled with raw gums/cheeks and sores on my gum line. My pathologist prescribed oral steroids for me for about 5 months to calm my mouth down. It did calm the sides down, but I gained 45 pounds in that time and have struggled to lose the weight. I was also diagnosed with sjogrens disease after a blood test. Another autoimmune disease which causes dry eyes and mouth. I haven't noticed any problems with my skin yet, but have been told that I should watch for changes in my skin. I haven't had my pap in a couple years. I need to get that scheduled right away. My Step-Mom actually told me emaud. But I am curious to see if it works for anyone.
