The first Lichen Planus spot had appeared on the left leg a year and a half back. It gradually spread on the right leg, abdomen, both hands, right fingernail. There was moderate itching on the legs and minimal on rest of the areas. He mentioned stress as the triggering factor. Stress was in relation to his business failure and broken marriage since past six to seven years. He had initially used cortisone ointment prescribed by a local doctor which had healed the spots in four months. Later it had relapsed back and started spreading to other areas as well.
