Dr Samina Ahmed offers comprehensive care for managing Lichen Sclerosis, a chronic skin condition affecting the genital and anal areas. My treatments focus on symptom relief and preventing complications, including the use of topical steroids to reduce inflammation and control symptoms. For patients who cannot tolerate steroids, we may recommend topical calcineurin inhibitors. We also advise regular moisturization and emollients to keep the skin hydrated and prevent dryness, ensuring long-term skin health.
