Dr Shah advised stopping the local ointment for LP. As per the above case details, Dr Shah’s research based medicines were prescribed. In 6 weeks there was 40% relief in the burning and pain. She was slowly able to eat normal food.

Within 4 months, there was a remarkable improvement in the oral lichen planus. She experienced relief in the joint pain and stiffness. The gout was improving. The eructations reduced.
