First of all avoid spicy food, eat soft diet along with one tomato daily. You can also take capsule SM fibros once a day for a month+ metrohex gel plus cenacort gel(mix both together and apply on burning sensation area for 15 days).
BUT ONLY AFTER VISITING AND CONSULTANCY FROM A CERTIFIED DOCTOR.
Next Steps
pls go and visit a doctor first.

Upon review these were the findings -
Female patient 62yrs age has history of diagnosis with oral lichen planus, past history of diabetes. Correlate with doctor who suggested biopsy for diagnosis.
Candida and lichen planus in your case might be due to diabetic history, causing immune susceptibility, more stress, diabetes? -is it in range of control with medication? More metabolic rate. All these factors have to be brought in control.
(Endocrinology, immune supplements and immune boosters, antifungal for candida, general medicine)
