Question 2

A 2-year old boy has come to the clinic with his parents because of a reddened, irritated diaper rash that is spreading. His mother reports that this has happened once before and the perfumed detergent that they are using may be the cause.
 
  The best advice that the pediatric nurse can provide to the mother is:
  A) Wash his bottom with water alone for the next 23 days, let the diaper area air dry, and return to the clinic if you see any skin breakdown or greenish discharge.
  B) Wash his bottom with soap and water once a day for the next 23 days, let the diaper area air dry, and return to clinic with any concerns.
  C) Wash his bottom with Epsom salts and water once a day for the next 23 days, let the diaper area dry, and return to the clinic if any blisters or vesicles appear on his bottom.
  D) Wash his bottom with an astringent solution and water once a day for the next 23 days, let the diaper area dry, and return to clinic if you are still concerned.
