Oral lichen planus is conceptually a chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa, the cause of which is still unclear, and is normally thought to be caused by some mental factors, local stimulation factors, endocrine disorders or food stimulation. There are also some diseases of the body, such as diabetes, heart disease and nephrotic syndrome. Therefore, in the treatment, we are based on the cause of symptomatic treatment, according to the examination of these causes, we first find whether local irritation, such as chewing hard food for a long time or some bad prostheses, will cause a change in the oral mucosa. Mild cases will show a grid-like change, and accompanied by certain papule-like protrusions, if there is no obvious clinical symptoms, we do not need to treat. If it shows some symptoms such as redness, erosion, pain, etc. of the mucosa, in this case we are paying attention to it, and it is necessary to carry out some local treatment or some treatment with oral drugs. Local treatment includes immunosuppressant treatment or some treatment with hormones or symptomatic treatment with Kunming Mountain Begonia or combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine.
