Impetigo is a disease characterized by superficial infection of the skin that begins as small vesicles. These vesicles rupture and for crust. The crust is honey colored with a presentation of bullous or non-bullous. The risk factors in developing impetigo are being exposed to humind environment , insect bites, minor cuts and poor hygiene. Non-bullous vesicles are 1 to 2mm in diameter that rupture and form a honey colored crust. These wound often time weep and present as red colored shallow ulcerations. These are common on the patients mouth, face, nose,eyes. They can arise from insect bites or trauma. Bullous type most common in newborn babies presented on their diaper area or neck folds. These infections if left untreated may become systemin infections such as sepsis (Moes-Wójtowicz, Wachnicka-Bąk, Agnieszka Opałka,Kalicki, Jung,2015). These vesicles are fluid filled blisters that become limp and then burst open. Upon assessment of the patient history and chief complaint I will assess for risks mentioned above and see if the patient has any of these risks. Second, I will identify if the vesicles are as described above. If the patient meets criteria, I will then swab the area for culture. These skin conditions often are associated with bacterial infections such as in group Strep infections (Corredor-Osorio,Corredor-Osorio,Corredor-Osorio, 2016). Differential diagnosis consists of herpes simplex, insect bites and dermatitis. The treatment for this are topic antibiotics and frequently washing of the area that is infected. In severe cases systeming antibitics may be required for this infection. Children that are infected may not return to school until infection is controlled.

Basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common malignant epithelial neoplasm skin cancer worldwide (Liu, Liu, & Bian, 2020). Risk factors include gender, age, immunosuppression, chemicals (arsenic), and ultraviolet light exposure. BCC is more prevalent in Caucasian males, typically, after the age of 40 years, and develops slowly in exposed areas of the body, such as the scalp, face, ears, neck, and trunk (Liu et al., 2020). Ultraviolet radiation exposure is the most common cause of BCC. There are various presentations of BCC. Typically, nodular BCC presents as a pearly, translucent nodule with a firm elevated border, visible telangiectatic vessels, and a depressed center with or without ulceration (Balaji, Duraisamy, & Kumar, 2019). Other BCCs can incl.

Basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common malignant
epithelial neoplasm skin cancer worldwide (Liu, Liu, & Bian,
2020). Risk factors include gender, age, immunosuppression,
chemicals (arsenic), and ultraviolet light exposure. BCC is more
prevalent in Caucasian males, typically, after the age of 40
years, and develops slowly in exposed areas of the body, such
as the scalp, face, ears, neck, and trunk (Liu et al., 2020).
Ultraviolet radiation exposure is the most common cause of
BCC. There are various presentations of BCC. Typically,
nodular BCC presents as a pearly, translucent nodule with a
firm elevated border, visible telangiectatic vessels, and a
depressed center with or without ulceration (Balaji, Duraisamy,
& Kumar, 2019). Other BCCs can include superficial, which is
erythematous and a well-circumscribed macule, morphoeic that
presents as a whitish scar, or pigmented which is a well-defined
melanization that is mostly seen in dark-skinned individuals
(Balaji et al., 2019). BCCs rarely metastasize but can infiltrate
and destroy surrounding tissue.
For clinical diagnosis, a dermoscopy can identify features,
including benign or malignant and patterns of pigmentation or
vascular structures, to distinguish between BCC subtypes and
other skin disorders, such as melanoma (Peris et al., 2019). In
cases of pigmented BCC, the ABCDE rule should be utilized to
rule out melanoma. A skin biopsy and histopathology can
3. confirm the diagnosis, especially for high-risk BCCs, such as
morphoeic, infiltrating, and basosquamous carcinoma (Peris et
al., 2019). Although BCCs rarely metastasize, depending on the
size and extent of tissue invasion, the tumor should be staged.

Urticaria, commonly known as hives, are itchy red welts that
can appear anywhere on the skin after contact or ingestion of a
substance (de Montjoye, Herman, Nicolas & Baeck, 2018).
Urticaria is a sign of an allergic reaction, and sometimes can be
a sign of an impending overt allergic reaction that could lead to
an anaphylactic reaction (de Montjoye et al., 2018).
The inflammation process begins after contact or ingestion,
where mast cell and basophil degranulation occurs and causes a
mass release of histamine, leukotrienes, prostaglandins, and
other inflammatory mediators (de Montjoye et al., 2018). After
the mass release, neutrophils, eosinophils, macrophages, and T-
lymphocytes are activated and begin converging to a specific
4. location in the body (de Montjoye et al., 2018). This
convergence also causes the secretion of cytokines, chemokines,
and proteases (de Montjoye et al., 2018). The most important
part about this process is the release of histamine due to its
rapid systemic effect on vascular endothelium, bronchial, and
smooth muscle cells (de Montjoye et al., 2018). This large
release can begin the cytokine cascade leading to anaphylactic
reactions (de Montjoye et al., 2018).
Urticaria presents as a combination of different skin
conditions (de Montjoye et al., 2018). Usually, a large raised
area that is reddened combined with pruritis, and noticeable
wheals occur on the skin area (de Montjoye et al., 2018). In
terms of anaphylaxis, the presentation includes other organ
involvement such as pulmonary with wheezing and coughing,
gastrointestinal with vomiting and diarrhea, the nervous system
with dizziness, or the cardiac system with heart rate and blood
pressure changes (Godse et al., 2018).
Diagnosis of urticaria begins with a thorough assessment of the
patient's recent contact with new chemicals or swallowed
substances (Godse et al., 2018). Next, an assessment of the
patient's presenting condition as there are indicators to rule-in
or rule-out urticaria (Godse et al., 2018). Asking about the time
of onset, any precipitating factors, use of drugs, and treatment
history for other diseases can help with the diagnosis of
urticaria. Also, asking about some common side effects of
pruritus, swelling, redness, and presence of wheals can aid in
the diagnosis when compared to the patient's account of the
current illness (Godse et al., 2018). In the determination of
local urticaria or signs of impending anaphylaxis reactions,
assessment of involved organ systems is necessary, is the
patient having trouble breathing, are there wheeze, nausea and
vomiting with diarrhea, or cardiac heart rate or blood pressure
changes, are all aspects that need to be assessed (Godse et al.,
2018).
