I have been treated for lichen planus for about 4 years-biopsies showed erosive in some spots. I see my specialist in Cincinnati once per year. I really feel as though I don’t know what I am doing most of the time! My dentist just told me I should be having my teeth cleaned every 3 months because of the lp. I often have “sloughing off” of the inner cheeks but seldom have discomfort. Did you have spots in your mouth that alerted you to the possibility of cancer or was this a surprise?
I also have vaginal lp which seems even more confusing to me as I am often red “down there “ 🤷♀️

I always check into this group to see what's new and find that most of the time I find very helpful information. What I would like to find out what your OLP looks like. Mine never goes away. I pull back my lips, and those glaring red gums are looking back at me, nothing like they used to be. My cheeks have many white lesions and must be slightly swelled as I have frequently bitten them in my sleep. Also what areas on the gums that almost look like bone coming through. I am wondering if an others mouth is similar?
