Abstract:

Objective This study aims to investigate the degrees of psychological distress in patients with oral lichen planus (OLP) and analyze the influencing factors. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 236 OLP patients who met the inclusion criteria using a general information questionnaire, distress thermometer (DT) and generalized an-xiety disorder-7 (GAD-7). We used SPSS 26.0 for statistical analysis of the survey results. Results The psychological pain score of all patients was 3.17±2.64, including 97 patients (41.1%) with significant psychological pain (≥ 4 points) and 90 patients (38.1%) with mild psychological pain (1-3 points). The main causes of psychological distress were oral pain (47.5%), worry (41.5%), and sleep disturbance (39.4%). Multiple regression analysis showed that disease type (erosion, non-erosion), anxiety, age, lack of time and energy to do housework, sleep disturbance, diarrhea, edema, and dry nose/congestion were independent factors for psychological distress. Conclusion Patients with OLP generally suffered from var-ying degrees of psychological distress, and those with erosion, anxiety, and/or sleep disturbance had a higher degree of psychological pain. Medical staff should strengthen the evaluation of psychological pain in patients with OLP and identify those with significant psychological distress in a timely manner to carry out reasonable and effective intervention.
