Answer to Question 1

A
Hot or warm water baths are used to reduce muscle spasms, soreness, and tension. A soak is used to prevent swelling, sooth skin irritations, and remove dead tissue.

One safety measure to prevent accidental poisonings is to never call medicine candy. Medications should be kept in a locked cabinet. All medications should be kept in child-resistant containers.
