Lichen Sclerosus

     Lichen Sclerosus manifests as white, hardened patches on the foreskin or glans penis. It can arise spontaneously or follow previous injury to the area. These lesions are firmer than the surrounding skin and may be accompanied by pain or itching. If affecting the foreskin, it can cause phimosis, necessitating prompt medical attention due to the risk of impaired penile blood flow.

 

Diagnosis and Treatment

     Early medical consultation is crucial for diagnosis and treatment, as untreated Lichen Sclerosus carries a risk of malignant transformation to skin cancer.
