Topical corticosteroids should not be used for an extended period of time. The area
should not be occluded. If a client uses a high-potency corticosteroid cream for a
dermatosis, tell the client that it may exacerbate concurrent conditions such as
tinea corporis and acne. Topical corticosteroids should not be used indiscriminately
on all cutaneous eruptions.Intermittent therapy with high-potency agents, such as
every other day, or 3 to 4 consecutive days per week, may be more effective and
cause fewer adverse effects than continuous regimens. This is also true of lower
potency corticosteroids.

Marcia, age 4, is brought in to the office by her mother. She has a sore throat,

temperature of 102°F but no pharyngeal erythema or cough. What do you suspect?
• Epiglottitis
• Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal pharyngitis
• Tonsillitis
• Diphtheria
• Epiglottitis (A symptom cluster of severe throat pain with difficulty swallowing,
copious oral secretions, respiratory difficulty, stridor, and fever but without
pharyngeal erythema or cough is indicative of epiglottitis)
(Streptococcal pharyngitis presents with cervical adenitis, petechiae, a beefy-red
uvula, and a tonsillar exudate) (A mild case of tonsillitis may appear to be only a
slight sore throat. A more severe case would involve inflamed, swollen tonsils; a
very sore throat; and a high fever) (Diphtheria starts with a sore throat, fever,
headache, and nausea, and then progresses to patches of grayish or dirty-yellowish
membranes in the throat that eventually grow into 1 membrane)
Peptic ulcer disease symptom
Burning/nawing
you are assessing a first grader, and find that the tonsils are touching the uvula:
3
(Grade 1 indicates the tonsils are visible)
(Grade 2 indicates the tonsils are halfway between the tonsillar pillars and the
uvula)
(Grade 3 indicates the tonsils are touching the uvula. Tonsils are enlarged to 2, 3, or
4 with an acute infection)
(Grade 4 indicates the tonsils are touching each other)
A 54-year-old female presents to your primary care office for routine reevaluation
for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). She has been treated with diet
modifications and 6 weeks of omeprazole without improvement of her symptoms.
What is the next step in management of this patient's GERD?
• Order an endoscopy
• Order a Helicobacter pylori blood test
, • Try adding ranitidine to the patient's regimen
• Try adding bismuth to the patient's regimen
• Order an endoscopy (This is the next step in treatment in order to evaluate the
etiology of the patient's GERD and consider biopsy if necessary)
(The next step in care is an endoscopy. If warranted, a biopsy can be done and sent
for H pylori at that time) (H2 antagonists are considered a less aggressive treatment
for GERD and would likely not help the patient's symptoms) (Bismuth can be added
to help treat Helicobacter pylori, but that diagnosis has not yet been made)

Michael, a 25-year-old military reservist, presents to your clinic for a rash that began
on his chest and has since developed into smaller lesions that are more
concentrated on the lower abdomen and pubic area. In obtaining a history of the
present illness, he reports that he had an upper respiratory infection 1 month before
the rash developed. He tells you it started with 1 large oval-shaped lesion on his left
chest, and 1 to 2 weeks later he developed numerous smaller lesions on the lower
abdomen and groin. It has been 2 weeks since the smaller lesions developed, and
he tells you he is concerned that the rash isn't improving. As you examine the
patient, you note that the lesions are salmon-colored and have a thin collarette of
scale within them. The original lesion is still present. You suspect Michael has:
• Guttate psoriasis.
• Tinea versicolor.
• Secondary syphilis.
• Pityriasis rosea.
• Pityriasis rosea. Pityriasis rosea is a common, self-limiting, usually asymptomatic
eruption with a distinct initial lesion. This "herald patch," which appears suddenly
and without symptoms, usually is on the chest or back. Secondary lesions appear 1
to 2 weeks later while the herald patch remains. The collarette scaling is another
classic symptom of pityriasis rosea. The lesions usually resolve spontaneously in 4
to 12 weeks without scarring. Outbreaks have been known to occur in close
quarters like military barracks and dormitories.
