Question

Ginni was extremely unhappy because a red rash was spreading all over her body and
was very painful. She had tried many local applications to get rid of them, but nothing
helped. The rash was causing irritation and made her feel uncomfortable.
She discussed her problem with her friend Shyama who suggested her to consult a
doctor in the village dispensary. In the dispensary the doctor looked at her skin problem
and noticed the fabric of her dress. She asked Ginny if she wore the same dress often.
Ginni said yes because she liked the dress very much. It was a fashionable dress, easy
to wear, carry and maintain.
The doctor advised Ginni not to wear the dress again for sometime. In warm climate
it did not allow the skin to breathe fresh air, caused sweating which led the skin to
become irritable and cause the red rash.
But Ginny was not convinced. She thought, everybody wore dresses made from
similar material and had no complaints. If nobody else had any problem in wearing
such clothes why she should have any. Surely she thought that her problem could not
be due to the clothes she wore. So she did not stop wearing her favourite dress.

If you were Ginni’s friend what would you advise her to do? How would you convince
her?

Answer 1

Answer:

I would have surely agreed with the doctor. Because, normally doctors only know the types of symptoms that cause skin problems. So, I would have supported the opinion of the doctor. I would convince by giving some examples of people who have suffered the same. I would also stop wearing such dresses to encourage her.
