On Corticosteroids For Lichen Planus. Having Very Small Rashes . How To Prevent Spreading?
hey, i have lichen planus . i consulted a dermatologist and was on costicosteriods for twice for two weeks each time, but the problem started again after 3-4 weeks. i get extremely small rashes which are not noticeable in the first couple of days. how do i prevent it from spreading now? Also, is it possible to permanently remove a couple of lichen planus patched that i ve had for over a year now?
hello
welcome to healthcare magic forum
thank you for your query
lichen planus is chronic condition .
recurrence is like rule in lichen planus
you need to apply medicine continuously for it
first we have to find reason for it ,in most case infection is cause ,so once we treat it ,we have good control over lichen planus
self medication is not advisable
better to consult dermatologist and get the treatment
i hope i answered your question
