A 9-year-old boy, Taumi, with a history of recurrent skin infections presents with extensive redness and pruritus of the popliteal and antecubital fossae, arms, and abdomen. He's scratched the lesions, especially at night, with the result that his sleep was disturbed. Despite the use of chronic moisturizing therapy and topical corticosteroids, he is having a seasonal flare of his condition. When he was 6 years old, he also experienced bronchial asthma with a persistent cough. This is not the first time he's experienced this type of rash and has had issues since he was 4 years old. His mothers, Patricia and Fran, are bringing him into the clinic today for another exacerbation. They have tried the following: diphenhydramine 25mg q8h prn, hydrocortisone 2% QID, Zyrtec 10mg QD, and Aquaphor QID. The medications help some, but he's still uncomfortable.

List 10-20 questions of subjective information that your patient will need to provide to help you formulate your differential diagnoses and plan.

1. Make sure to address a health maintenance item for this patient (primary or secondary) and the social determinants of the health barrier questions. (See Reply Post for additional information.)

2. If there is a screening tool for the disorder, this would count as ONE question. Example PHQ-9 has nine individual questions but would count as one for the purpose of this assignment.
