Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Welcome and thanks for posting your query to the forum.

I have gone through your complete query and I am quite empathetic to the rashes on your hand and Legs with its summer exacerbation. Though you have tried to give us best possible details, even then I would like to ask you certain important information from your side:

- Since how long you have the problem of rashes.

- Is it been conformed by a dermatologist that your condition is lichen planus.

- Do you have the problem only on lips or inside the mouth also.

- Do you feel any problem in your mouth on eating spicy or sour food.

- Have you had taken any medicine in past or are you taking any other medication for skin condition or other than that.

- Any other health problems or any specific points which is important to mention.

- It would be best if you can send few good resolution pictures of the affected areas (rashes) so that I can analyze it better. For that you have a feature to upload images by yourself at the right side of the query page. Or else, you can send as an attachment to YYYY@YYYY with the subject as "Attn: Dr. Sanjay Kumar Kanodia).

Hope to hear soon from your side.

Wish you good health.

Regards.
