Lichen Planus is a chronic inflammatory condition that
can affect the skin, mouth, scalp, nails, and genital areas. It often appears
as purple, flat, itchy bumps on the skin or as white patches and burning
sensation inside the mouth.
At Homoeo Clinic, Dr. Dinesh Sharma focuses on treating the root cause of
lichen planus with individualized homoeopathic care, aiming for long-term
relief and prevention of recurrence.
Lichen planus is considered an autoimmune-related
inflammatory condition where the immune system mistakenly attacks the skin or
mucous membranes.
Common symptoms include:
• Purple, shiny, flat-topped skin lesions
• Severe itching
• White lacy patches inside the mouth (Oral Lichen Planus)
• Burning sensation while eating spicy food
• Hair thinning (if scalp is involved)

• Immune system imbalance
