A 14-year-old boy who is a new patient presents with acute contact dermatitis. During the expanded problem-focused history, the doctor learns that the boy just came back from a camping trip and was out in the woods when his skin began to itch. The examination was also expanded. The physician sends the patient home with a prescription and instructs him to return if the condition does not improve in a few days.
