Hello doctor, I am having red rashes on my body over my two sides of tummy, over two arms and forearms, calves also. This issue started before eight months. Started taking medicine and after two weeks it started showing symptoms of getting cured but when I stopped medicine it again started.Other than this I have rashes over my penis also which also was completely cured after taking medicine but now it again started.
Hi. I can understand your concern about the skin lesion. It is a condition called lichen planus and it will take few months to subside. The treatment you are taking is good. Apply Clonate (Clobetasol propionate) cream twice daily on every rash. Are you still taking Predmet? If not we can consider about taking oral steroids again for a short period (Predmet 8 mg twice daily for seven days, then once daily for another seven days and taper further depending on the response). Continue Laveta (Levocetirizine). Lichen planus can occur in skin, genitalia, mouth, and nails. Usually, takes 18 to 24 months to subside. I would like to get a blood work including your count and blood sugar. Follow up in two weeks after starting treatment. Do not take Predmet for longer periods without follow up.
