@jshdma OLP and it’s cause and treatment are well explained in this information from
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/lichen-planus/symptoms-causes/syc-20351378
Mayo Clinic. It is an autoimmune disease as the immune system attacks the skin and mucous membranes.
Have you discussed your concerns about it spreading with your doctor/

Thank you, Becky. Indeed I have discussed OLP with at least 6-7 doctors. All of them were unable to do anything: high level specialists in NYC and Boston. One told me they only treat it if it is "ulcerated." That is like treating cancer or other serious problems only when they get bad enough. Whatever happened to catching things early? Meanwhile it continues to get worse, made much worse by the vaccine. I guess getting worse in my case does not conform to the conventional definition. The fact is that it is making my life miserable.
