Lichen planus:
It is a papillary and occipital disease, uncommon in children. In hot climates, the disease has been recorded in infants but is rare in childhood and most cases are seen in older age groups.
Lichen may result from immunological factors and there are several information confirming the relationship of genetic factors.
Flat lichen affects the skin and mucous membranes. The primary lesion is a multicolored, violet flat papillae that show gray lines on the surface during examination with magnifying lenses, known as the Wickmann lines, one of the diagnostic criteria for flat lichen.
Clinical Forms:
Topical form: Scalp lesions manifest in dry, scaly areas and heal with non-reversible atrophy and atrophy. Flat lichen in the palms and soles may appear as low areas aligned with the primary lesion.
Nails can also be caused by incisions and splinters.
Skin lesions may take different forms and models that are usually symmetrical in the form of circular, linear or corrugated plaques that mainly affect the limbs.
