Suggest Remedy For Lichen Amyloidosis

i have lichen amyloidosis in my arms and legs. I was prescribed with topical medcines, lotion and soap but it did not seem to be cured. Now I am using daily rubbing my arms with lemon juice , after 10 min, i mixed lemon juice and baking soda. after 30 min, i rub with my home made coconut oil an hour after I take a bath. I do not use anymore body lotion. it seems to fade. and no more ichyness. Before going to bed, I wet a cotton balls with apple cider vinegar and no more itchiness again. Am I in the right path?
