Placing pillows under the client’s knee (choice A) is not recommended as it can hinder circulation and delay healing.
Performing range-of-motion exercises to the client’s knee (choice B) may be part of the rehabilitation process but should be done under the guidance of a physical therapist and may not be appropriate for immediate pain relief.
Gently massaging the area around the client’s incision (choice D) may not be appropriate as it can cause discomfort and disrupt the healing process.
