Oral lichen Planus: What home remedies or medications help you?
Anyone in the group suffer from Oral Lichen Planus. I am at my wits end with all these erosive sores in my mouth. I've had two biopsies , one in the inside cheek and one under the side of my tongue. The spot under the tongue is extremely sore to touch and has been for over a year. It scares me because the soreness never goes away, sometimes it isn't as sore but nothing helps. Any home remedies for this dreadful condition?

I called them scabs for lack of a better term. The sores were and are brilliant red and as they become better, they get a white opaque cover on them that looks like a soft, mucous like cover. The "scab" is easily lost when touched, like applying ointment with a QTip. Does the Clobetasol help heal?
Absolutely! I got my prescription through my family physician. It is a must have... when dealing with any form of Lichen Planus. I apply it especially at bedtime. I understand now what you meant by "scabs" Those white spots are normal with mouth sores.
