Answer to Question 1

C
Many injuries are caused by working through the pain. Pain can be a sign of a serious injury and should be properly evaluated before continuing the activity. Many teens are stressed or quit their sport because of intense emotional pressure. The child should let the parent know if this is happening. Injuries can be caused from this pressure. Conditioning should be year-round.

Answer to Question 2

A

Feedback
A Correct. There is more rapid absorption of topical medication in infants and children due to greater body surface area (BSA) to weight ratio. The skin is also thinner and more permeable.
B Incorrect. Topical medication absorption in infants and children is unrelated to vascularity in infants and children.
C Incorrect. Topical medication absorption in infants and children is not about the same as in older children, as the body surface area to weight ratio is decreasing.
D Incorrect. Topical medication absorption in infants and children is unrelated to poor tolerance.
