Question

A client diagnosed with scabies has been prescribed lindane lotion.

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is E. Apply a thin layer of lotion on the skin from the neck to the soles of the feet.

Explanation:

Scabies are described or known to be small bugs that burrow and  found crawling under the skin. They lay eggs and continue to multiply under the skin.

They cause rash on the skin and severe or intense itching, which normally get worse in the night.

The lindane lotion , when applied on the skin, goes through or enters the skin, and kills the scabies and their eggs.

The scabies do not affect the face of adults and older children.
