Here are the answers:

Soaking the foot in warm water<span>
Applying antibiotic ointment

<span>In an ingrown nail, the nail sliver penetrates the skin, resulting in inflammation that may hinder ambulation and interfere with activities of daily living. After the nail sliver is removed by a podiatrist, treatment involves soaking the foot in warm water and applying antibiotic ointment. Application of an ice pack is suitable for plantar fasciitis rather than an ingrown toenail. Treatment of secondary infection is advised in hypertrophic ungual labium, which results from an untreated ingrown nail. The application of padding and lanolin creams is recommended for calluses.</span></span>

Based on the information in the graph, which blood type is most likely to be in shortest supply during an emergency?
Maksim231197 [3]
While there is no graph provided and I cannot find the graph online, I will base my answer through theory. 

In theory, the most common blood type is O+, followed by A+, then B+, then AB+. Rh negative blood is deemed to be rare. While the most common blood type is O+, the same blood type is also called the "universal donor" as a type O+ blood has no antigens attached in red blood cells therefore the probability of adverse reactions (i.e. hemolytic reactions) when transfused to other blood types are close to nil. In an emergency situation, wherein there is not enough time to do proper crossmatching, blood type O+ can be used therefore supplies of blood type O+ are easily depleted.
