If a person has lesions on the face, you should not use...

A hot towel
Cold cream
Steam
Astringent

The correct answer is: A hot towel

If a person has lesions on the face, you should not use a hot towel because heat can further irritate and inflame the lesions. Applying heat to already irritated skin can exacerbate the condition and may lead to discomfort or worsening of the lesions. It is important to avoid anything that can potentially worsen the skin condition or cause unnecessary discomfort to the client. Cold cream, steam, and astringent are all suitable options for different skin conditions, but in the case of lesions on the face, it is best to avoid using a hot towel.
