Lichen Sclerosis and oral Lichen Planus
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi,
I have recently been diagnosed with Lichen Sclerosis after having a biopsy; however, i only ended up being referred to a specialist direct as I told my GP that I have a history of severe Lichen Planus in my mouth. Just wondering if anyone else suffers from both conditions?

I have had really bad times with it ,so sore to leave off underwear,
but now I have found that after putting the Betnovate(betamethasone valerate) cream on I leave it a few hours then cover the area gently with ordinary vasaline this not only \"waterproofs\" the area but acts as a skin softner ......may be worth a try for you, I have had breast cancer ,hysterectomy ,I was almost killed in a car crash in the u.s in2005 which left me with a perminant injury,,,,,,,,but you know what ? wish there was a trade in for L.S ,,,,,,,,,,try and keep smiling

hello there I suffer from both lichen sclerosus and lichen planus both are really awful conditions but after 4 months both are reasonably under control but its an on going thing I find its just getting the hang of keeping it under control once you are sure of yourself you can keep it to manageable proportions. I also have it all over my arms and back but only the vulva area itches and splits. I find its worse as it makes me feel so run down and listless .but at least its not itching and bleeding so I manage
