I discovered that the medicine I was taking caused the oral lichen planus.
I researched OLP for a cause. A list of medications that can cause it was found.
My hydroxychloroquine was on the list so I stopped taking it and my mouth is much better.

@SusanEllen66 Wow! That’s really strange! Have you told your doctor yet? Love to know his response!

That is something I’ll look into. I never heard of that and stopping that med did the trick for you. Was it easy to replace that med with one that didn’t bother you.
