causes of lichenoid reactions

edit

There is little clear info on lichenoid reactions in this article. This looks like a good source [1] Lesion (talk) 17:19, 5 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Now I realize this might be because we have a separate article of sorts on this. Drug-induced lichenoid reaction. Lesion (talk) 20:11, 2 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Title

edit

On PubMed,

"oral lichen planus" yields 2043 hits "mucosal lichen planus" yeilds 33 hits

I wonder if this article could be renamed oral lichen planus? Terms such as "multifocal mucosal lichen planus" and "vulval mucosal lichen planus" seem to be occasionally in use. Lesion (talk) 20:11, 2 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

I'm just going to move it, the article uses the abbreviation "OLP" throughout so it is focussed on oral lichen planus rather than other mucosal sites. I wonder if coverage of the other mucosal sites can be worked into both this article and the main lichen planus article? Lesion (talk) 20:28, 2 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
