Lichen Sclerosus on Penis - please advise

Lichen Sclerosus on Penis - please advise

Hello All

My doc has told me I may have  Lichen Sclerosus on the shaft of my penis, & has referred me to a dermatologist...I am still waiting for my appointment.

I currently have no symptoms apart from penis discoloration

My GP sent me for a blood test & everything came back ok.

Can someone please help me understand the below questions:

1. Can Lichen Sclerosus spread across my body, like Vitiligo?
2. What is the risk of getting cancer frm Lichen Sclerosus on my penis?
3. What is the difference between Lichen Sclerosus & Vitiligo

Thank you for your advise & help

Rick
