Hi.... Just relax your mind and remove this word Stress because who knows it can be the cause. It’s an auto immune disease with no permanent cure as such. You can just be given symptomatic relief. You can visit a dentist he may prescribe you corticosteroid topical cream for the lesions. OLP can be caused by some medicines, some Dental materials etc. The cause can be many but you have to find your trigger.
Next Steps
Visit a dentist
Health Tips
Avoid hot spicy foods that irritates the lesions

Stress can always affect the outcome and make autoimmune conditions worse. So please work at being relaxed. Wait for a few more weeks. Consult your doctor if you see no improvement.
