What does dermatosis lp mean?

Skin disease LP (lichen planus) is a common inflammatory skin disease, and its etiology is still unclear. Symptoms are usually purplish red papules, accompanied by itching, tingling and other discomfort. The disease usually occurs in fingers, wrists, forearms, legs and external genitalia, and may affect oral mucosa, scalp and nails.

Symptoms and treatment of dermatosis LP

In addition to the classic symptoms of dermatosis LP, the disease may also lead to a white or ear bead rash on the skin surface, which is called ichthyosis-like rash. References show that the treatment of dermatosis LP may include oral antihistamines or local hormone drugs. Oral LP can be treated by using mouthwash or oral patch.

Although the etiology of dermatosis LP is not clear, studies have shown that it may be related to infection, allergy, trauma or specific drugs. Methods to prevent dermatosis LP include avoiding contact with corresponding drugs, allergens and other environments as much as possible. In addition, maintaining correct hygiene habits and avoiding trauma may effectively prevent diseases. If you suspect that you have skin disease LP, please consult relevant doctors in time to get the correct treatment plan.
