Lichen nitidus is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown cause characterized by 1–2 mm, discrete and uniform, shiny, flat-topped, pale flesh-colored or reddish-brown papules that may appear as hypopigmented against dark skin. Occasionally, minimal scaling is present or can be induced by rubbing the surface of the papules. The disease usually affects children and young adults and is painless and usually nonpruritic, although protracted itching may occur in some cases.
Lichen nitidus нь ихэвчлэн хүүхэд, залуу настай хүмүүст тохиолддог бөгөөд хоёр хүйсэд болон бүх арьсны төрлүүдэд адилхан нөлөөлдөг. Энэ нь ихэвчлэн 1‑2 мм хэмжээтэй, гялалзсан, хавтгай, овойлт хэлбэртэй болдог. Ийм овойлт нь голчлон гар, хөл, гэдэс, цээж, шодой дээр илэрдэг. Lichen nitidus нь ихэвчлэн шинж тэмдэггүй тул эмчилгээ нь голчлон шинж тэмдгийн эсвэл гоо сайхны асуудалд чиглэгддэг. Lichen nitidus most commonly presents in children and young adults and does not favor one sex or race. Lichen nitidus presents as multiple, discrete, shiny, flat-topped, pale to skin-colored papules, 1 to 2 mm in diameter. These lesions commonly present on the limbs, abdomen, chest, and penile shaft. It is usually asymptomatic, so treatment is generally for symptomatic or cosmetically disturbing lesions.
