I use lidocaine both 4% & 5%. I buy the 4% otc at Walgreens. The 5% not in the stores but I ordered it on line. The problem I have with urinating is that it burns. Is that the pain you have? What is lichen planus?

@andwho - Thanks for your quick response. I went to CVS earlier today and bought CVS brand lidocaine 4% cream. As soon as I got home I applied it before I urinated. It did not help at all. The burning sensation when the urine hits the outside tissue is enough to make me almost scream. Is your lidocaine a gel or cream? Also is it a Walgreen's brand? As far as what lichen planus is, you might do a google search but as I understand it is the same cause of lichen sclerosis. I know it is incurable but I pray for some treatment that will give some relief. It seems there are so many who find an answer but we all seem to be different. Look forward to your response. Faye
