So I have had this bump since July, it started from a small spot and proceeded to what you can see. My dermatologist said it could be lichen planus and that there are no clinical signs towards anything else. Any help from previous experience would be appreciated imageimage

    This about the same? For the life of me i can't get an answer and my Dr. said it was normal.....lol, obviously not normal but all blood work and tests are clear.

    The head is super wrinkly and as you see i have this lighter raised patches as you can see.
