Tina Jones is a 28 year old African American female.
She came to see me with complaints of a sore and
itchy throat, a runny nose, and itchy eyes for about a
week. They started with no appranet cause and have
been constant. There are no obvious causes. She
rates the pain in her throat as mild to moderate. Her
throat hurts when she swallows. Her nose runs
constantly, and it is clear discharge. She has taken
lozenges for her throat, as well as increased water
intake, but she has not taken anything else for her
eyes or her runny nose. Patient denies a cough or
any recent illnesses. She claims that she has not
been exposed to anything that could cause her
symtpoms. She denies any changes in any other
body systems. She claims that she has never been
diagnosed with environmental allergies, just dust and

aggravating symptoms, but states that her throat
pain seems to be worse in the morning. She rates
her throat pain as 4/10 and her throat itchiness as

Dear Student,
Nice work! You did a good job with this case study. But you are missing some pertinent information..
HPI/Social Hx/ROS/ differentials/etc. Of course, there is always room for improvement.
Please take time to review your results and the feedback provided by Shadow Health. Compare your
performance with the model note. It is important to understand where you may have missed
opportunities to be more effective or enhance your skills. On the physical exam, you should have noted
that the posterior pharynx was slightly erythematous with mild cobblestoning. This was a hallmark clue
to the the presence of chronic postnasal drip. Cobblestoning is a widely used adjective referring to an
appearance, morphology or pattern characterized by multiple, similarly-sized rounded densities that
project from a single linear surface when the image is 2-D or that rise above a flattened plane when
viewed in 3-D, a pattern which has been likened to pre-internal combustion engine roads paved with
‘cobbled’ stones. Therefore, the primary diagnosis of allergic rhinitis was correct. With a myriad of
treatment options available on the market for AR, how did you decide to select specific medications?
