Question

A mother brings her 18-month-old son to your clinic because of a persistent facial rash. The child is restless at night and scratches in her sleep. He is otherwise healthy.

Today, his vitals are as follows: weight 23.4 lbs, height 31.8 inches, BP 120/76, HR 100, RR 26, and Temperature is 98.6 F. His physical examination reveals a well-nourished, healthy-appearing child with dry, red, scaly areas on the cheeks, chin, and around the mouth as well as on the extensor surfaces of his extremities. The areas on the cheeks have a plaque-like, weepy appearance. The diaper area is spared. The remainder of the child's examination is normal.
