Treatment of lichen planus in Tashkent

Treatment of lichen planus 

Lichen planus is a chronic itchy dermatosis of a multifactorial nature, characterized by monoform papular rashes on the skin. According to some reports, the frequency of lesions of the oral mucosa varies from 60 to 80%.
Allocate neurogenic, viral, bacterial, autoimmune theories of this disease. Toxic-allergic theory is important in the development of isolated lichen planus of the oral mucosa (OOM). Chronic general somatic diseases weaken the protective properties of the body, as well as the resistance of the mucous membrane to injury, which leads to lichen planus. The neurogenic theory of lichen planus is confirmed by the fact that the first outbreaks of the disease in many patients were found after some kind of nervous shock or after chronic nervous overstrain, which served as a provoking factor.

Diagnostics
In most cases, the diagnosis of LP is clinical. To clarify the diagnosis, a histological examination of skin biopsies from the most characteristic lesions is performed
