Anyone have success with treatment for vaginal Lichen Sclerosus?

@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

@fdixon63 try this cream I get from Amazon. Works really well. Calmoseptine Cream Skin Protectant
It has menthol in it that really helps

I don’t use it to help with the burning when urinating, I haven’t found anything to help with that. Not even gasoline or barrier cream. I dread having to urinate!! Do you? The lidocaine helps the soreness & pain not the burning! I use a cream lidocaine. I suffer with lichen sclerosis.
