Assessment of the Skin

Describe a patient with an abnormal skin symptom or group of symptoms such as a rash, an itch, redness, a lesion, or wounds. Do not limit yourself to these examples.

• What history might be associated with the symptom, if any?
• What are the known risk factors for this condition?
• What physical examination techniques would you use?
• What patient education would you give the patient?
• Find a nursing journal article about these symptoms.
