I am shocked at all the oral cancer from folks with Lichen Planus. Everything I have read is there is a very small chance of oral or vaginal cancer from LP or LP Scerlosous. I have had both for last11 years and have both checked every three months. Everything has calmed down after a very long bout.

I do think it is a very small risk. That's why no one biopsied my lesion. As a member of various oral cancer groups I meet a few who have had cancer develop from it. Statistically it is probably insignificant but needs to be watched.
