Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Gardasil protects against human papillomavirus, which is a cause of cervical dysplasia and cancer. It is offered to both females and males. The vaccine does not decrease the need for regular cervical cancer screening. It is given in a 3-vaccine series, with the second dose in 2 months and the third dose in 6 months.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Patients should be counseled to cleanse the lesions 3 times daily and to use compresses to remove necrotic material. It is not necessary to apply bacteriostatic ointment or to cover the lesions with gauze. Washing the lesions is recommended.
