Hello,i have been diagnosed with lichen planus on my skin 2 weeks ago .I was told that cause of this disease is yet unknown but is believed to be an autoimune disease .What my doctor told me was to cut all the things which can cause an inflamation ,things such as : red meat ,sugar ,milk ,white rice,bread,pasta .I should eat more spinach , broccoli, kale ,avocado ,drink 2 l of still water a day ,avoid citrics and anything fried .My food has to be steamed ,boiled or baked .I started 2 weeks ago and itching diminished considerably .I also do another therapy among diet and i was reccomended yoga or meditation or any other kind of stress release .My question is if ayone here cured himself/herself of this disease ? Thanks a lot!
