🔍 Key Concepts

• Antiseptics vs. Antibiotics – what each is used for in first aid • How we treat wounds on the skin before they get worse • Difference between treating a problem (like pain or swelling) and preventing a problem from starting

💭 Think About

• When you clean a cut on deck, what are you trying to stop from happening later? • Which option describes something that happens before an infection starts, not after it’s already there? • Look at each choice and ask: Is this the main reason we apply an antiseptic, or just a possible side effect (or not related)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Remember that antiseptics are applied to living tissue/skin, not used inside the body like many drugs • Ask: Does this option describe prevention or treatment of symptoms (like pain, swelling, circulation)? • Be sure the choice you pick matches the primary purpose, not a secondary benefit.
