    Two days isn't long. If no change after two weeks, show a doctor. If Lichen Planus, you may find it resolves itself. Mine did.

      The Lichen Planus starts as a raised pimple then gradually flattens and fades away. It takes several weeks for the whole sequence to run its course. Then it returns as does it again after 2 - 3 years. I mainly get it on the lower forearms, but also in the mouth and on the glans under the foreskin.
