Welcome to the Pain Management Forum at MedHelp. I am sorry that you are experiencing the painful symptoms of Lichen Sclerosus (LS). Some of the most popular treatments are topical corticosteroids and topical estrogen
Although prescription medication is the most common treatment for LS, other treatments include:
Laser vaporization
Injections of mid-range potency steroids
Photochemotherapy
There are also cases that a gluten and dairy free diet has been helpful along with acupuncture. There have been literally hundreds of articles published on the causes, symptoms, and treatments of LS.net.
I am hopeful your physicians will be successful in treating and easing the discomfort of LS. We are here to offer support and to chat when ever you may feel the need. Please keep in touch and let us know how you are doing. I will look forward to hearing from you. Take Care, Tuck
