It is usually caused by a blocked milk duct or bacteria entering the breast through a cracked nipple. Mastitis can cause symptoms such as fever, chills, headache, body aches, and redness, swelling, and pain in the affected breast. Mastitis is usually treated with antibiotics and pain relievers. It is important to continue breastfeeding or pumping to empty the breast and prevent further engorgement. Endometritis is an inflammation of the inner lining of the uterus (endometrium) that can lead to infection. It is usually caused by bacteria entering the uterus during childbirth, miscarriage, abortion, or insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD). Endometritis can cause symptoms such as fever, chills, lower abdominal pain, foul-smelling vaginal discharge (lochia), and uterine tenderness. Endometritis is usually treated with antibiotics and pain relievers. It is important to seek medical attention if symptoms persist or worsen .

The correct answer is Choice C.

Choice A rationale: Eating a meal prior to postural drainage is not recommended.Postural drainage uses gravity to help clear mucus from the lungs, and having a full stomach can cause discomfort and potentially lead to vomiting1.

Choice B rationale: Pancrelipase is a medication that replaces digestive enzymes produced by the pancreas.Most people with cystic fibrosis benefit from taking pancrelipase to aid their digestion2. However, it is not specifically required prior to postural drainage.

Choice C rationale: Using an albuterol inhaler prior to postural drainage is beneficial.Albuterol is a bronchodilator that helps open the airways, making it easier to clear mucus from the lungs34. This is why it’s recommended to use prior to postural drainage.

Choice D rationale: While maintaining good oral hygiene is important for overall health, it is not specifically required prior to postural drainage
