A 6 year old child with vesicular rash and honey crusted plaques around the nose and mouth.

Question 1 of 5

A 6 year old child presents to the pediatric clinic with vesicular rash and honey crusted plaques around the nose and mouth. Which of the following statements by the parent indicates the need for further teaching?

A. I will remind my child to wash their hands well and frequently B. I will remind my child not to touch their face while the rash is present C. I will give my child a separate towel from other family members D. I will fill a prescription for antiviral ointment to apply to the rash

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. This child likely has impetigo, a bacterial skin infection that requires antibiotics, not antiviral ointment. The vesicular rash and honey-crusted plaques are classic signs of impetigo, which is caused by bacteria, not a virus.
Therefore, the parent's statement about filling a prescription for antiviral ointment is incorrect and indicates a need for further teaching. Antibiotics, not antiviral medications, are necessary to treat impetigo effectively.

Choices A, B, and C are all appropriate measures to prevent the spread of infection and are not indicative of a need for further teaching in this scenario.
