Lichen planus
☆ V rezultatih raziskave Stiftung Warentest iz Nemčije leta 2022 je bilo zadovoljstvo potrošnikov z ModelDermom le nekoliko nižje kot s plačanimi telemedicinskimi svetovanji.
Široke lezije na obeh golenicah so netipične. V tem primeru se običajno bolj sumi na druge kronične alergijske bolezni (lichen simplex chronicus).

Lichen planus (LP) je dolgotrajno vnetno stanje, ki večinoma prizadene odrasle v srednjih letih. Pojavi se lahko na koži ali sluznicah, kot so usta, vagina, požiralnik, glasilka in očesna sluznica. LP je v različnih oblikah, odvisno od tega, kako izpuščaji izgledajo in kje se pojavijo. Študije kažejo, da nekatere vrste LP, na primer tiste, ki prizadenejo požiralnik ali oči, morda niso dovolj diagnosticirane. Nekatere oblike LP, kot sta hipertrofični in erozivni tip v ustih, so lahko še posebej obremenjujoče in trajajo dolgo časa. Drugi dejavniki, kot so zdravila ali stik z nekaterimi snovmi, lahko sprožijo podobne izpuščaje.
Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory disorder that most often affects middle-aged adults. LP can involve the skin or mucous membranes including the oral, vulvovaginal, esophageal, laryngeal, and conjunctival mucosa. It has different variants based on the morphology of the lesions and the site of involvement. The literature suggests that certain presentations of the disease such as esophageal or ophthalmological involvement are underdiagnosed. The burden of the disease is higher in some variants including hypertrophic LP and erosive oral LP, which may have a more chronic pattern. LP can significantly affect the quality of life of patients as well. Drugs or contact allergens can cause lichenoid reactions as the main differential diagnosis of LP.

Lichen planus je stanje kože, ki ga zaznamujejo škrlatne izbokline in zaplate z ravnim vrhom, ki lahko povzročijo močno srbenje. Te kožne lezije so lahko moteče, zlasti če resno prizadenejo usta ali genitalije. V hujših primerih lahko oral lichen planus celo poveča tveganje za nastanek neke vrste kožnega raka. Lahko vpliva tudi na lasišče in nohte. Medtem ko vzrok večine primerov ni znan, nekatere lahko sprožijo nekatera zdravila ali okužba s hepatitisom C. Zdravljenje običajno vključuje močne kreme za lokalne primere in peroralne steroide za bolj razširjene.
Lichen planus is a skin condition marked by purplish, flat-topped bumps and patches that can cause intense itching. These skin lesions can be distressing, especially when they affect the mouth or genitals severely. In severe cases, oral lichen planus may even increase the risk of developing a type of skin cancer. It can also affect the scalp and nails. While the cause of most cases is unknown, some may be triggered by certain medications or hepatitis C infection. Treatment typically involves strong creams for localized cases and oral steroids for more widespread ones.

Lichen planus je stanje, pri katerem imunski sistem povzroči vnetje, kar povzroči značilne znake na koži in sluznicah. Prizadene približno 5 % odraslih, pogosteje žensk, in se običajno začne okoli srednjih let. Prizadetost ustne votline je opažena v do 77 % primerov, večinoma prizadene notranjo stran lica. Medtem ko nekateri ljudje morda ne čutijo nobenih simptomov, lahko drugi občutijo bolečino in imajo težave z določeno hrano (npr. Kislo, začinjeno) ali zobno pasto.
Lichen planus is an immune-mediated inflammatory condition leading to characteristic lesions on skin and mucous membranes. It presents in up to 5% of the general adult population with a female predilection (2:1); the onset is most commonly in middle age. Up to 77% of patients with lichen planus have oral disease, with buccal mucosa the most common subsite. The oral lesions may be asymptomatic, although a subset of patients have pain and difficulty tolerating certain foods (e.g., acidic, spicy) and toothpaste.

Za potrditev diagnoze kožnega lichen planusa je mogoče narediti biopsijo kože. Neposredna imunofluorescenca (DIF) je lahko koristna pri bolnikih z buloznimi lezijami za razlikovanje stanja od avtoimunske vezikulobulozne bolezni.
