An example of a fungal infection is

Verrucae
Psoriasis
Tinea Pedis
Paronychia

Correct Answer

A. Tinea Pedis

Explanation

Tinea Pedis is a fungal infection commonly known as athlete's foot. It affects the skin on the feet, causing itching, redness, and peeling. This infection is caused by various types of fungi that thrive in warm and moist environments. It is highly contagious and can be spread through direct contact or by walking barefoot in public places such as locker rooms or swimming pools. Treatment usually involves antifungal medications and keeping the feet clean and dry. Verrucae, Psoriasis, and Paronychia are not fungal infections but rather conditions caused by a virus, an autoimmune disorder, and a bacterial infection, respectively.

Therefore, a burn is a contra-action or adverse reaction to the intended effect of achieving smooth skin through the mask treatment with hot boots.

Therapists should advise pedicure clients to wear _ shoes or _ on the day of treatment

Correct Answer
open-toed
sandals

Explanation
Therapists should advise pedicure clients to wear open-toed shoes or sandals on the day of treatment. This is because open-toed shoes or sandals allow the toes to remain exposed and free, preventing any damage to the freshly painted nails. It also allows the nails to dry properly without smudging or getting ruined. Wearing closed-toe shoes may cause smudging or chipping of the nail polish, which is why open-toed shoes or sandals are recommended.

Chillblains are caused by

Ill fitting shoes
Dry skin condition
Heart disease
Poor blood supply aggravated by cold weather

Correct Answer

A. Poor blood supply aggravated by cold weather

Explanation

Chilblains are caused by poor blood supply aggravated by cold weather. When the body is exposed to cold temperatures, the blood vessels in the skin constrict to conserve heat and maintain core body temperature. In individuals with poor blood circulation, this constriction can further restrict blood flow to the extremities, leading to the development of chilblains. Chilblains typically appear as red, swollen, and itchy patches on the skin, and they can be quite painful. It is important to keep the affected areas warm and avoid further exposure to cold to prevent chilblains from worsening.
