Answer to Question 1

C
Pinworms are not detected with a urine sample. A special pinworm diagnostic tape is applied to the anal area. Linen and stool precautions will help contain the spread. Suppositories are not used to treat local irritation to the anal area. Anthelmintics are administered to treat the disease.

D
