I was diagnosed with Lichen Amyloidosis on my legs
After 40 years, I was diagnosed with Lichen Amyloidosis on my legs. Has anyone else dealt with this or have any further information on it? The only thing I have found is online from the UK. Do I need to worry about long-term problems beside being self-conscious? The Dermatologist who finally diagnosed my condition has since retired.

I was given a differential diagnosis by my rheumatologist after presenting with swelling of my tongue. I don’t really know what ALL my diagnosis are, but what are symptoms on your legs like?

I have been dealing with this as well. Have you been able to find anything to help with this condition?
