MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS VS LICHEN SCLEROSUS
We often get confused with the spelling of multiple sclerosis and lichen sclerosus. There is one thumb rule that you can apply to memorize where to put U and where to put I.
Just remember the positions of U & I comes. They interchange between their positions.
Always consider the positions of the First 2nd alphabet and the 2nd last alphabet.
THUMB RULE:
If U comes first, then it will be followed by I.
MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
U ==> I
If I comes first, then it will be followed by U
LICHEN SCLEROSUS
I ==>U
