Has your child been diagnosed with or currently being treated for asthma? Kampe et al., (2017) discussed the incidence of different skin conditions in both allergic and non-allergic asthmatic patients; explaining that self-reported allergic rhinitis and eczema were the most relevant skin conditions for this group of patients.
He has been treated for wheezing before, but does not currently take any medications for asthma.
2. Does your child have any history of environmental allergies that you know of?
He seems to have seasonal allergies. He always has a runny nose and itchy eyes in the spring and the fall.
3. Does your son have any allergies to medications?
He is allergic to penicillins. He got hives after taking amoxicillin for an ear infection.
4. Is your son experiencing any respiratory symptoms?
No he doesn’t have any breathing problems.
5. Have you used any new skin products on your son, such as a new detergent, body lotion or body wash product?
We don’t have any new products at home and we try to keep all products fragrance-free because his skin has always been so sensitive.
6. Has your child ever required a dermatology evaluation for this condition?
No we have never been to a dermatologist, but that is a good idea. Maybe you could send us to one?
7. Does your child exhibit signs of runny nose or watery eyes?
In the spring and fall, like I said, he gets a runny nose and itchy eyes.
8. Does your child complain of secretions in the back of his throat?
No he does not seem to complain about this.
9. Has your child experienced a fever with this type of condition?
No he does not have a fever.
10. Has the rash spread to any other areas of the body other than what you have mentioned?
No, just in the areas that we talked about.
11. Is there anything that makes the rash worse?
In the winter the rash always seems to be worse. It also worsens in the summer when he is at soccer camp all day.
12. Is your son taking any new medications other than what you mentioned?
No, he has no new medications.
13. Are there any pets in the home?
Yes we have a cat, two dogs, three fish, and a rabbit.
14. Has your son been bitten by an insect or tic?
Not that we know of.
15. Has your son traveled anywhere within the last 30 days?
No we haven’t traveled anywhere recently.
16. Has your son had any exposure to sick contacts?
No one has been sick. Although, who knows what is going around these days!
17. Does your son have any food allergies? Research states that people who have food allergies have an increased risk of developing other conditions such as asthma and atopic diseases; the association between these two conditions can progress to a severe state causing anaphylaxis.
Yes, he is allergic to eggs. We’ve also noticed some upset stomach with dairy so we try to avoid milk products but he really loves pizza and ice cream.
18. Have you prepared any new foods or has your son eaten anything unusual?
No he hasn’t eaten anything unusual lately.

Introduction
The iHuman platform is an opportunity for you to interact with a simulated patient and gather data. When working in iHuman, practice as if this were a real patient. For example, the platform allows you to ask several questions when taking a patient history. In real life, you likely will be limited in time. Practice setting yourself a patient history time limit and work on being efficient in your clinical interview.
If you require technical support with the iHuman platform, use the iHuman Help Center to contact iHuman Technical Support directly. Technical support only includes a malfunction of the platform; they cannot help with issues involving content!
