Well, what do you think the correct response would be.....and why?

I'm guessing this wasn't a very important application.

Specializes in psych, addictions, hospice, education.

Wouldn't this question be more appropriate for a medical student, since it seems to be making a medical diagnosis/treating it, and nurses don't do that....?

A lot of these sock puppets seem to have the same picture, too!

Either that or I know you, OP.
