It also affects other body regions in some people, including the mouth, genitals, nails, and hair. The majority of patients recover in 6 to 12 months. Treatment, typically with a steroid cream or ointment, often relieves the itch and may lessen the rash until the problem resolves. Homeopathy paves a wide path in this field to cure Lichen planus. The specialist suggests\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drbatras.com\/lichen-planus\/homeopathic-treatment\"><strong>homeopathic treatment for lichen planus\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>for a speedy recovery. Let&#8217;s see the causes and types of Lichen planus in brief:<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What is Lichen planus?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Lichen planus is a skin rash generated by the immune system. It is yet unknown why this immunological response develops. There could be various contributing elements, and each situation is unique. Potential causes include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Virus infections<\/li>\n<li>allergens<\/li>\n<li>stress<\/li>\n<li>genetics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lichen planus is sometimes associated with autoimmune illnesses. While it may be painful, lichen planus is usually not dangerous. It is also not contagious. There are, however, certain rare forms of the illness that can be severe and painful. These variations can be addressed with topical and oral treatments to alleviate symptoms or with immune-suppressing therapies.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Causes:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Lichen planus is caused by your body&#8217;s unintentional attack on your skin or mucous membrane cells. Doctors are unsure why this occurs, but there is evidence that genes and environmental factors may be involved. The physician recommends<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>homeopathic treatment for lichen planus<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>for a slow and simple recovery. Lichen planus may be caused by any of the following factors:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Predisposition due to genetics<\/li>\n<li>Stress, both physical and mental<\/li>\n<li>Skin injury; lichen planus frequently occurs after the skin has been scraped or after surgery.<\/li>\n<li>Herpes zoster is a type of localized skin disease.<\/li>\n<li>Hepatitis C is an example of a systemic viral infection<\/li>\n<li>Metal fillings in oral lichen planus (rare) and color photography development are examples of contact allergies.<\/li>\n<li>A lichenoid rash can be caused by drugs such as gold, quinine, quinidine, and others.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>What mental\/emotional and physical stressors can aggravate lichen planus symptoms?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Some mental\/emotional stress indicators that can aggravate your lichen planus symptoms include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Depression.<\/li>\n<li>It&#8217;s difficult to relax.<\/li>\n<li>To unwind, use drink, smoke, or narcotics.<\/li>\n<li>A negative self-perception (low self-esteem).<\/li>\n<li>Anxiety (constant worry).<\/li>\n<li>I&#8217;m feeling really overwhelmed.<\/li>\n<li>Concentration problems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Anger, mood swings, or a short fuse.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The following are some physical markers of stress that can aggravate your lichen planus symptoms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Nausea and dizziness.<\/li>\n<li>Not wanting to have sex.<\/li>\n<li>Sleeping excessively (hypersomnia).<\/li>\n<li>Sleeping too little (insomnia).<\/li>\n<li>Diarrhea.<\/li>\n<li>Constipation.<\/li>\n<li>Muscle stress.<\/li>\n<li>Aches and aches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Types:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The following histologic features can be used to classify lichen planus:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Planus cutaneous lichen.<\/li>\n<li>Lichen planus of the mouth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>Lichen planus of the vulvar region.<\/li>\n<li>Planus lichen penile.<\/li>\n<li>Lichen planus on the nails.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul>\n<li>Pigmented lichen planus.<\/li>\n<li>Planopilaris lichen.<\/li>\n<li>Eruption of a chenoid medication.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Bottom Line:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Thus, the above-mentioned are the causes, symptoms, and types of Lichen planus.
