Q: Which is not correct regarding the contraceptive method being used?

Has lower failure rate than male condom. ***Has lower failure rate than male condom*** - The **female condom** (as depicted in the image) generally has a **higher typical use failure rate** than the male condom based on most effectiveness studies. - While male condoms have an 18% typical use failure rate, female condoms have a typical use failure rate of about 21%. *Inner ring can irritate penis* - The flexible, **inner ring** of the female condom, which helps secure it in place against the cervix, can potentially cause **irritation to the penis** during intercourse due to friction. - This is a known concern for some users and their partners. *Made of polyurethane* - Female condoms are traditionally made of **polyurethane**, which is a synthetic rubber suitable for individuals with **latex allergies**, allowing for use with oil-based lubricants. - Newer versions may also be made of **nitrile** or other synthetic materials. *Pregnancy can occur if penis enters between the device and vagina* - If the **penis slips between the outer ring** of the female condom and the vaginal wall, sperm can be deposited directly into the vagina, leading to potential **pregnancy**. - Proper insertion and positioning are crucial to prevent this type of user error.

Dracunculus. ***Dracunculus*** - The image shows a procedure for extracting a **guinea worm (Dracunculus medinensis)** by gradually winding it around a stick. - This characteristic method of removal is pathognomonic for **dracunculiasis**. *Cutaneous Larva migrans* - This condition presents as **serpiginous, erythematous, pruritic tracks** on the skin, caused by hookworm larvae. - It does not involve a visible worm being extracted with a stick. *Visceral larva migrans* - This is caused by the migration of nematode larvae (typically *Toxocara canis* or *cati*) through internal organs, with systemic symptoms. - It does not manifest as a worm emerging from a skin lesion. *Tenia solium* - *Taenia solium* (pork tapeworm) infection can manifest as taeniasis (intestinal infection) or **cysticercosis** (larval cysts in tissues). - Neither of these presentations involves a worm being manually extracted from a skin lesion in this manner.

Q: A child presents with the ocular findings shown in the image below. Identify the most likely underlying illness:

Pertussis. ***Pertussis (Whooping Cough)*** - The image shows **subconjunctival hemorrhage**, which is a **classic complication** of pertussis in children - Pertussis causes severe **paroxysmal coughing fits** that dramatically increase intrathoracic and intravascular pressure - This elevated pressure leads to rupture of conjunctival blood vessels, resulting in subconjunctival hemorrhages and facial petechiae - These hemorrhages are well-recognized **diagnostic clues** for pertussis, especially when accompanied by the characteristic whooping cough - This is a **primary manifestation** of the disease process, not merely an incidental finding *Trachoma* - Trachoma, caused by *Chlamydia trachomatis*, presents with **chronic follicular conjunctivitis** and progressive scarring - Classic features include follicles on upper tarsal conjunctiva, conjunctival scarring, trichiasis, and pannus formation - While it causes conjunctival inflammation, **acute subconjunctival hemorrhage is NOT a typical feature** of trachoma - Trachoma is a chronic, scarring disease rather than an acute hemorrhagic condition *Tetanus* - Tetanus is a neurological disorder characterized by **muscle rigidity** and **spasms**, beginning with trismus (lockjaw) - Ocular manifestations are limited to **risus sardonicus** (facial muscle spasm) and potential ophthalmoplegia - Does NOT cause subconjunctival hemorrhage as a direct manifestation *Measles* - Measles presents with **maculopapular rash**, fever, the three C's (cough, coryza, conjunctivitis), and **Koplik spots** - The conjunctivitis in measles is typically a **bilateral, non-hemorrhagic inflammation** with watery discharge - Does NOT typically cause prominent subconjunctival hemorrhage as shown in the image
