Instructions

You are a medical student on placement in general practice. Your next patient is Aarohi Menon, 5. Her mother, Divya, has come in alone because Aarohi has been scratching her bottom at night and waking upset for two weeks.

  1. Take a focused history from her mother

  2. Explain your diagnosis and management plan to her mother

  • Aarohi is not present; you do not need to examine her
  • You do not need to summarise to the examiner
