A 61 years old lady, Mrs. M.R.V. (PIN 32366) consulted at Life Force for her lichen planus complaints on the 6th June 2017. She had developed hyperpigmented & spherical spots scattered on her forearms, abdomen, back, both thighs, breast, and inguinal region for two-three months. Also, she was suffering from oral and genital lichen planus. She was experiencing increased salivation and burning in the mouth. Her disease was progressing very rapidly for the last 2 months. She was taking homeopathic medicine for 1 month from another center, but she was not getting any significant results. Apart from Lichen Planus, she was also suffering from epilepsy for 30 years for which she was taking antiepileptic medicines. 

She had fair skin, and she was of average build. She was vegetarian by diet. She desired sweet food and fruits. There was an aversion to spicy food present in her case. Her thirst and perspiration were average. Her bowel movements were not satisfactory. Her sleep was sound.
