A biopsy of the top of the glans came back Lichen Planus or Lichen sclerosus.

How do these pictures compare to your cases of LP or LS?

NOTE: All pics taken in May. Currently on clobetasol. Feels better but appearance has not improved. The swollen pics (5, 7 and 8) were taken after sexual intercourse. The swelling died down by morning.

Is this typical? The tip started to hurt during intercourse so I came early (after 15 minutes). Does lidocaine on sore spots help?image

Does lidocaine on sorest spot help during intercourse?

      I am seeing a specialist for a followup correlation of the diagnosis. I am not sure what LS looks like in very early stage. I have some white but it is not advanced. It may be LP or it may be very early LS - hopefully I have an answer when I see new doctor.

      by let it heal, do you mean stop medicine?

      Ha! I have no sex down pat. Even if I go weeks or months, it seems to make no difference.

      I am doubling down on amount of oral my wife gets, so my loss is her gain although we do miss intercourse.
