Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Heat promotes vasodilation, allowing for the consolidation of pus in infected areas. Scented products may contain chemicals that promote irritation to the infected area and have no curative benefits to this particular client. Cold application will result in vasoconstriction and will not promote healing.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
Adequate intake of iron, copper, and zinc is important to prevent abnormal pigmentation and changes in nails and hair.
