Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale:

1. Asian-Americans are most likely to combine acupuncture with Western health care prescriptions.
2. Mexican-Americans are most likely to combine curanderismo with Western health care prescriptions.
3. African-Americans are most likely to combine roots of voodoo, seen in Black Muslims, with Western health care prescriptions.

Rationale 1: Ear pain four to eight days after a tonsillectomy might be experienced and does not indicate an ear infection.
