A nurse is planning to teach a group of newly licensed nurses about communicable skin infections. Which of the following skin disorders should the nurse identify as being transmitted person-to-person?

A. "You should limit medications containing aspirin while taking this supplement.": There is no direct interaction between glucosamine and aspirin that requires limiting the use of aspirin. However, glucosamine and aspirin generally do not have a known interaction that would necessitate this precaution.

B. "Notify your provider if you develop tinnitus.": Tinnitus is not a known side effect of glucosamine. This statement would be more relevant for medications such as aspirin or other drugs known to cause tinnitus.

C. "You should increase your daily intake of protein while taking this supplement.": There is no specific requirement to increase protein intake when taking glucosamine. The focus should be on managing osteoarthritis symptoms and following general dietary recommendations rather than specifically increasing protein.

D. "Taking glucosamine can decrease blood glucose levels.": Some studies suggest that glucosamine might influence blood glucose levels, particularly in people with diabetes. This statement is relevant because it highlights the potential impact of glucosamine on glucose metabolism, which is important for clients managing diabetes or blood glucose levels.

A) Irrigate the affected ear with hydrogen peroxide: Irrigating the ear with hydrogen peroxide is not recommended post-myringotomy. This can cause irritation or infection at the surgical site, which could impede healing and potentially worsen the condition.

B) Drink liquids through a straw: Drinking liquids through a straw can create pressure changes in the ear, which is not advisable post-myringotomy. These pressure changes might affect the healing process of the ear.

C) Swimming is permitted after 1 week: Swimming is typically restricted for a longer period post-myringotomy to prevent water from entering the ear, which can lead to infection or interfere with the healing process.

D) Air travel is allowed after 3 weeks: Air travel restrictions are generally recommended for a few weeks post-myringotomy due to pressure changes that occur during flight, which can affect the ear's healing process. Waiting for 3 weeks allows the surgical site to heal sufficiently, reducing the risk of complications from pressure changes.
