Hello,
If it is lichen planus, then it is best to avoid sugar rich foods because diet high in sugar will probably aggravate this condition. If there are any lesions in the mouth then certain foods which need to be avoided are Spicy foods, citrus juices, tomato products, caffeinated drinks like coffee and cola, and crispy foods like toast and corn chips.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Thank you very much for the reply.
Is there any foods you would suggest I eat or anything? thank you.

Hello,
It can be due to lichen planus. Lichen planus is an inflammatory disease that affects the skin and the oral mucosa, and presents itself in the form of papules(flat spots) or rashes. Treatment is available only on prescription and consists mainly of steroids,retinoids,hydroquinone and phototherapy.
I suggest you to consult a dermatologist and get it evaluated.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
