Question 1 of 5
A 4-year-old child presents with varicella and vesicular rash in various stages of healing. Which statement by the parent indicates understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Once some of the lesions are crusted over, the child is not contagious. This statement shows understanding because varicella is most contagious when the lesions are in the vesicular stage. When the lesions crust over, they are no longer infectious.
Choice A is incorrect because giving children's aspirin for fever in varicella can lead to Reye's syndrome.
Choice B is incorrect because the child should stay home until all lesions are crusted over, not just when the fever subsides.
Choice D is incorrect because cool/tepid water may cause discomfort and should be avoided.
