How to treat nail lichen planus

Lichen planus can occur not only in the mouth but also on the nails. Because lichen planus has a high likelihood of developing cancer, it is important to seek treatment as soon as a person develops lichen planus. Lichen planus mainly occurs in young and middle-aged people, and the incidence of lichen planus in the elderly and children is relatively low. What is the treatment for lichen planus on the nails?

In the treatment of nail lichen planus, it is recommended to apply compound steroid powder if local erosion occurs, and the effect is very good. This medication can be taken several times daily. In addition, when some symptoms are obvious, local injection of triamcinolone can be used. This method is mainly done twice a week, and antibiotics can be added. The red lips can be applied with Fusaoshuang, but if there is a scab, wet compress treatment should be used first, and then a thin layer should be applied after the scab falls off, several times a day.

Targeted measures should be taken in the treatment of the disease. This method mainly focuses on the medical history and clinical and laboratory test results to treat the relevant factors: and when the lesions are not erosive and are limited in scope, 2% to 4% sodium bicarbonate solution and 0.2% chlorhexidine solution can be used for alternating gargles several times a day. Review once a month, focusing on dangerous areas. Patients with lichen planus should be careful about spicy and irritating foods. These foods are very detrimental to the recovery of the disease. They should try to reduce the stimulation to the oral mucosa as much as possible to facilitate the rapid improvement of the condition of patients with lichen planus and accelerate healing.
