I have oral Lichens Planus. My oral surgeon gave me shots of steroids directly into my ulcers on my tongue and they went away for now. One win! However, my immune system has been so compromised, I got shingles after the steroids and am dealing with severe nerve pain now. Most painful thing ever! Almost unbearable.

Welcome @aurport005, It's good to hear that the steroid shots helped with Oral Lichen Planus but I'm sorry to hear you are now dealing with shingles and the severe nerve pain. I thought you might like to read through the following discussion to see if you might find some help.

-- Anyone else dealing with shingles?:

Have the doctors suggested or ordered any treatments to help with the nerve pain?
