Question 1 of 5
Nurse is caring for a client who presents with linear clusters of fluid-containing vesicles with some crusting. Which should the nurse suspect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Herpes zoster. The presentation of linear clusters of fluid-containing vesicles with crusting is characteristic of herpes zoster, also known as shingles. This is caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, which initially causes chickenpox. The linear distribution along a dermatome is a key feature distinguishing it from other conditions. Allergic reaction (
A) typically presents with hives or erythema, not vesicles. Ringworm (
B) presents with a circular, scaly rash. Systemic lupus erythematosus (
C) is an autoimmune disease with a different presentation.
