Medical condition
A lichenoid eruption is a
skin disease characterized by damage and
infiltration between the
epidermis and
dermis.
[1]
Examples include
lichen planus,
lichen sclerosus and
lichen nitidus. It can also be associated with abrasion or drug use.
[2] It has been observed in conjunction with the use of
proton pump inhibitors, and might be a sign and/or symptom of
lupus such as
subacute cutaneous lupus erythematous, according to the
case reports and reviews.

The term "lichenoid" derives from a resemblance to a
lichen.
