I've been dealing with these lichen planus spots for about 8 months now, and they just don't seem to be fading. They're primarily on my ankles and inner arms. Do these marks ever really go away?

I've been dealing with this annoying itch in my leg for over a week now. It seems like it only happens to me during the summer months. I'm using Mycoderm powder, but the itching just won't go away. Any idea what's going on or what else I could try?

Question

Is it okay to use Grocapix solution? Are there any side effects I should be worried about? Will it actually help in stopping hair loss and maybe even help regrow the lost hair? I've been prescribed Androanagen tablets along with the Grocapix solution. I'm also wondering, if I stop using these, is it gonna lead to more hair fall like it happens with minoxidil?
