Re: why is only one area red?

[Guest guest]

I commented here before about redness between my inner labia (where i

experience most of my pain), and I was told here that it was due to

inflammation...seems logical in your case, too, because if the area's

inflamed, it would hurt more, and be consequently red...but that's

just my experience. it made a lot of sense to me, though, so i hope

it's actually relevant, lol!

Throughout all of this, I've always been more red and inflammed on my

left side rather than my right. My pelvic muscles are tighter on the

left side thus inflamming the nerves more on that side.

My current pt has done a lot of myo-facial release through out my whole

body. She found the tightest areas on my right side. This tightness

transferred to my left side lower down on my body because I was

compensating for the tightness on the right side of my body. This isn't

the entire answer, just a complicated piece of the puzzle.

,

My redness is always in my inner labia and clitoris. It took years to

find the right doctor who thru a biopsy, that didn't hurt, find that I

have Lichen Planus. Have you seen a specialist? You may want to get

checked for LP.

Now I can control the episodes with a powerful steroid ointment called

clobetesol or Temovate. Please ask your doctor about this or go to a

derm. who specializes in this.

Good Luck!
