Could sore throat be associated with oral lichen planus?

Dr. Manami Yamaguchi answered

Specializes in Dentistry

Yes: Sore throat seems to be a fairly common condition--almost 20% of all lichen planus in some research. While the cause of lichen plans is not clear, other skin areas are often affected.
