Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Erythema multiforme major usually occurs in association with herpes or mycoplasma infection or in response to medications, although a range of infections is implicated.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
While all of the conditions listed may progress from papules to erosive crusted lesions, folliculitis is associated with pustules, rather than vesicles.
