Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The prescribed amount of ointment is usually applied to the skin by a gloved hand in long, smooth strokes. Lanolin-based preparations should be avoided because of a possible allergy to wool.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Some children with eczema also develop asthma and hay fever-type allergies.
