Question

which injuries do you think require extra care or specialized first aid? check all that apply. a twisted ankle that is swelling a burn covering most of one arm a bleeding head wound a bee sting on someone who is allergic a severe sunburn with blisters heart attack or cardiac arrest symptoms

Explanation:

• a twisted ankle that is swelling: Usually managed with basic RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) first - aid, not highly specialized.
• a burn covering most of one arm: Burns over a large area (even on one arm) can lead to shock, fluid loss, and risk of infection. Specialized first - aid (like proper cooling without ice, covering with sterile non - adhesive dressings) and medical referral are needed.
• a bleeding head wound: Head wounds can bleed profusely. Specialized first - aid includes applying pressure, but also being cautious of underlying skull fractures or brain injury (e.g., checking for consciousness changes).
• a bee sting on someone who is allergic: Allergic reactions to bee stings can be life - threatening (anaphylaxis). Specialized first - aid includes administering epinephrine (if available) and calling emergency services immediately.
• a severe sunburn with blisters: While sunburns are common, severe ones with blisters need care to prevent infection (cleaning with mild soap and water, applying aloe - vera or sterile dressings if blisters break). But it is less immediately life - threatening compared to some others.
• heart attack or cardiac arrest symptoms: Immediate specialized first - aid like CPR (if cardiac arrest) and calling emergency services (as heart attacks need timely medical intervention like aspirin administration in some cases, and cardiac arrest needs defibrillation).

Answer:

a burn covering most of one arm, a bleeding head wound, a bee sting on someone who is allergic, heart attack or cardiac arrest symptoms.
