Which finding, obtained during a skin assessment, should the school nurse report to the healthcare provider?

A. Multiple maculopapular pustules over the forehead and chin are suggestive of acne vulgaris or possibly another dermatologic condition that may require medical intervention. If the pustules are widespread or persistent, it should be reported for further evaluation. B. Bilateral patellar abrasions with eschar formation are common in children and are usually non- threatening unless there are signs of infection. This finding may not require immediate reporting unless the condition worsens. C. A red, swollen, painful nodule on the upper back is likely a boil or abscess, but it’s important to consider the overall presentation and if there is a risk for systemic infection. This may not need immediate reporting unless symptoms worsen. D. Small, white flecks on the hair shafts indicate possible head lice, which, while needing treatment, doesn’t require immediate reporting unless there is a larger health concern associated with it.
