Health History - TINA JONES™
History of Present Illness
One week after sustaining the cut, Tina Jones develops an infection in the cut on the bottom of her foot; she seeks
treatment when the infection starts to swell and produce pus.
Day 1 (Onset): Tina was at home, going down the back steps, and she tripped. She turned her ankle and scraped the
bottom of her foot. The wound bled, but she stopped the bleeding quickly and cleaned the wound. She worried that
she had sprained her ankle, and her mom drove her to the ER. (“a week ago”)
The ER did an xray (no broken bones), gave her a prescription for Tramadol, and sent her home. In the following days,
her ankle seemed fine not as serious as she thought.
Day 2 - 4: She cleaned the wound dutifully, twice a day, with soap and water or hydrogen peroxide, let it dry, put
Neosporin on it, and bandaged it. The wound wasn’t getting worse, but it wasn’t healing, either. She expresses that
she “took really good care of it.” Tina was able to go to work and attend school.
ly
Day 4: Tina went to her cousin’s house, where she encountered cats and experienced wheezing. She tried two puffs on
her albuterol inhaler, and she had to do a third puff. (“three days ago”)
n
Day 5 - 6: Tina noticed pus in the wound, and swelling, redness and a warm feeling in her foot. Her pain increased to
the point she was unable to walk. She began to take the Tramadol to try to manage the pain, but it didn’t resolve the
pain completely. She missed class and work. (“two days ago”)
O
On the night of Day 6: Tina started to run a fever. They took her temperature at home, and it was 102. (“last night”)
Morning of Day 7: Tina fi nally recognizes that her foot infection is not going to get better, and her mom takes her to
the nurse practitioner to get the foot looked at.
