For those with anal LS I’m Cured

I was diagnosed with ls in 2013. I discovered it was toilet paper that caused my LS. I used to wet the paper. I have stopped and use a toilet paper that is bleached with hydrogen peroxide rather than chlorine. Ive been free of LS ever since. sometimes i mistakenly wipe with regular paper and the LS flares up and I heal it with salt and water. The skin was sensitive and is no more since I began swallowing 1 crushed garlic everyday. Today I am grateful as I tried steroids and everything else to rid myself of this most horrible condition.

    Yes, anything that that delicate sensitive tissue reacts to can give you a flare ... unfortunately not a cure x
