Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have white lines near the teeth on the lower lip which appears and goes by their own. But sometimes it hurts.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
It could be lichen planus. It does not go off on wiping. If it goes off on wiping, then it is candida. Your case does not support submucous fibrosis as there is no blanching. My provisional diagnosis is lichen planus.
