Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
This child may have early Lyme disease, which is treated presumptively with Ceftin prior to obtaining laboratory results. By the time carditis and neurological involvement occur, the rash has generalized. Admission is not warranted.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Toddlers are more prone to biting due to the frustration of not being able to verbalize their feelings.
