Lichen planus
☆ I Stiftung Warentest-resultaten 2022 från Tyskland var konsumentnöjdheten med ModelDerm bara något lägre än med betalda telemedicinkonsultationer.
Breda lesioner på båda smalbenen är atypiska. I det här fallet är andra kroniska allergiska sjukdomar (lichen simplex chronicus) vanligtvis mer misstänkta.

Lichen planus (LP) är ett långvarigt inflammatoriskt tillstånd som främst drabbar vuxna i mellanåren. Det kan dyka upp på huden eller slemhinnor som munnen, slidan, matstrupen, röstlådan och ögonslemhinnan. LP finns i olika former beroende på hur utslagen ser ut och var de dyker upp. Studier tyder på att vissa typer av LP, som de som påverkar matstrupen eller ögonen, kanske inte diagnostiseras tillräckligt. Vissa former av LP, som de hypertrofiska och erosiva typerna i munnen, kan vara särskilt betungande och hålla länge. Andra faktorer som mediciner eller kontakt med vissa substanser kan utlösa liknande utslag.
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 är ett hudtillstånd som kännetecknas av lila, platta knölar och fläckar som kan orsaka intensiv klåda. Dessa hudskador kan vara plågsamma, särskilt när de påverkar munnen eller könsorganen allvarligt. I allvarliga fall kan oral lichen planus till och med öka risken för att utveckla en typ av hudcancer. Det kan också påverka hårbotten och naglarna. Medan orsaken till de flesta fall är okänd, kan vissa utlösas av vissa mediciner eller hepatit C-infektion. Behandling innebär vanligtvis starka krämer för lokala fall och orala steroider för mer utbredda sådana.
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 är ett tillstånd där immunsystemet orsakar inflammation, vilket resulterar i distinkta märken på huden och slemhinnorna. Det drabbar cirka 5 % av vuxna, oftare kvinnor, och börjar vanligtvis runt medelåldern. Oralt engagemang ses i upp till 77 % av fallen, vilket mest påverkar den inre kinden. Medan vissa människor kanske inte känner några symtom, kan andra uppleva smärta och ha problem med vissa livsmedel (t. Ex. Sura, kryddiga) eller tandkräm.
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.

För att bekräfta diagnosen kutan lichen planus kan en hudbiopsi göras. Direkt immunfluorescens (DIF) kan vara användbar hos patienter med bullösa lesioner för att skilja tillståndet från en autoimmun vesikulobulös sjukdom.
