A member asked:
Could dietary changes such as eliminating sugar, dairy and processed foods reduce symptoms of longstanding lichen sclerosis? if so what diet is best?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: Diet is important. But no diet has any effect on lichen sclerosis. Potent prescription topical steroids are very effective and very safe.
