    if you have lichen you will have these white patches spots that really itch on you . it will also itch really bad and sometimes there is tearing l usually get the tearing on ihe cloritis. But you can go on the internet and look up lichen sclorous and it will show you what it looks like. plus my gyn dr took a little piece any tested it thats when i found out i had it. plus i just finished memopause and im 71 years old . But this is a autoimmune disease and i have IBS. Get you a dr appoinment and they can tell you for sure .

    I can't tell exactly what it is or where it is and those do make a difference. Hurt? Burning? Itch? Other issues?
