Lichen

Lichen is a skin disease that is characterized by the appearance of lichen-like rashes on various parts of the body. This may be due to various factors such as heredity, immune disorders, infectious diseases, etc.

Lichen may appear as red, pink, or brown patches on the skin. The rash may be dry or wet and may sometimes be itchy. Lichen can be localized or spread over large areas of the body.

Treatment for lichen depends on the cause of the disease. In some cases, antibiotics or other medications may be required. Topical ointments and creams may also be used to help reduce inflammation and itching.

However, if lichen is left untreated, it can lead to serious consequences such as skin scarring and impaired skin function. Therefore, it is important to consult a doctor when the first symptoms of lichen appear and begin treatment as soon as possible.
