Hi,
Some advice about the treatment of lichen amyloidosis are:
- Use topical steroids.
- Use oral antihistamines such as Levocetirizine.
- Other treatments such as UVA and phototherapy can be effective.
I suggest you consult a dermatologist about these treatments.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
