Question 1 of 5

A preschool-aged girl tells the school nurse that her hair hurts. The nurse finds that the child's hair has been arranged to cover several small bald spots. Which finding indicates to the nurse that the hair loss is not disease related?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Ecchymotic blood accumulations suggest trauma, such as hair-pulling (e.g., trichotillomania), indicating a non-disease-related cause. Pruritus and erythema suggest dermatological issues. Patches of hair loss alone do not specify the cause.
