I have lichen planopilariasis and I lost most of the crown of my hair but I changed my diet and hair products and my hair started to grow back. Plus I tried reducing my stress levels but my son passed away and now my whole body aches with chronic pain and my hair is feeling it too again.

When I first got diagnosed with lichen planopilariasis i had the same chronic pains in my muscles and was stressed with work.

Do you think it's related to lichen planopilariasis?

Has anyone else experience this?

Thank you

I now have chronic pain in my shoulder..I would ask your doctor or dermatologist about your body pain though..I have read that having one autoimmune disease could lead to a second..comorbidity ...

I had biopsy and I also have this auto immune disease. Used to have long, thick hair and I’m losing hands full of hair every day. It’s very depressing. Could you tell me what shampoo you used and what nutritional you ate.Thank you
