I have been worrying about possible Oral Cancer.
(see my thread: Canker or CANCER sores?)
Now I have discovered a gallery of ORAL LICHEN PLANUS, and a layman could never distinguish between these pictures and the Oral Cancer gallery.
Before you get your biopsy results, in many cases one can hope it might be non-malignant ORAL LICHEN PLANUS.
In my case characteristic "streaks" may indicate Lichen rather than OC. (Hopefully!)
Warm regards,
