Lichen planus - oral , vulval and oesophagus

Posted by suewq @suewq, May 13 3:31am

I have been diagnosed with oral , vulval and oesophageal lichen planus. This appears extremely rare and medication has been proposed ( Prednisolone followed my methotrexate) .
Any treatment and success of treatment for oesophagus lichen planus in particular would be welcome

@suewq, there are several discussions about lichen planus that I can share with you.
– Lichen planus https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/lichen-planus-2da636/
– Vaginal pain Lichen Planus https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/vaginal-pain-lichen-planus/
– Esophageal Lichen Planus https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/esophageal-lichen-planus/
– Oral lichen Planus: What home remedies or medications help you? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/oral-lichen-planus-3/

Has this gradually moved from one location to another for you or all places at once? It sounds like the esophageal region is the most challenging. Is that true?
