I have had two hospital appointments for oral lichen planus but have been told I am not in the risk category for oral cancer. I don't smoke or drink. I am having a lot of problems with my mouth. My GP thought I had oral thrush and I have had three prescriptions of Nystan for this. However, I am still experiencing a lot of discomfort. My hard and soft palate are yellow (doesn't look like oral thrush) I have a hard red bump on my upper gum just inside one of my back molars. My upper jaw creaks and crunches when I am eating, I have a permanenet sore throat, stringy, bad tasting saliva and intermittent earache. I am also very tired all the time. I am 58, slightly overweight and have an autoimmune illness but other than that have been in relatively good health. Help!
