• Refrain from sharing towels and razors with others: Prevents transmission of bacteria that can enter through minor skin breaks and cause cellulitis. Maintaining personal hygiene items reduces the risk of reinfection or spreading pathogens to others.

• Complete full course of antibiotic therapy: Promotes healing by ensuring that the bacterial infection is fully eradicated. Stopping antibiotics prematurely can lead to treatment failure, recurrence, or development of resistant organisms.

• Wash hands before and after touching open wounds including bug bites: Prevents future cellulitis by reducing the likelihood of introducing bacteria to compromised skin. Proper hand hygiene is a key preventive measure for both the client and caregivers.

• Shower daily with antibacterial soap: Helps prevent future cellulitis by reducing bacterial load on the skin. Regular cleansing is particularly important in clients with diabetes or peripheral vascular disease, who are more prone to skin infections.

• Eat foods which contain protein and vitamin C: Promotes healing by supporting tissue repair and immune function. Adequate nutrition enhances wound healing, reduces recovery time, and strengthens defenses against infection.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Urge the client to have regular STI screening every two years: Screening every two years is insufficient for individuals with recurrent STIs. More frequent testing is recommended to prevent reinfection and detect new infections early.

B. Answer questions directly and correct any misinformation: Providing accurate, evidence-based information helps the client understand STI transmission, prevention, and treatment. Direct responses foster trust, support informed decision-making, and address misconceptions effectively.

C. Clarify that all STIs are transmitted through sexual intercourse: Not all STIs are transmitted solely through intercourse; some, like herpes or HPV, can be transmitted via skin-to-skin contact. This statement could be misleading and does not fully educate the client.

D. Provide counseling that most contraceptives protect against infection: Most contraceptives, such as oral contraceptives or IUDs, do not protect against STIs. Only barrier methods, like condoms, reduce the risk of STI transmission.

A. Continue PROM if joint's muscle spasms to relax muscle. B. Slowly stretch the joint's muscles if pain is present. C. Move the joint slowly until resistance is felt. D. Instruct the client to relax during the exercises. E. Support the extremity of the joint being exercised.

Correct Answer is ["C","D","E"]

Explanation

A. Continue PROM if joint's muscle spasms to relax muscle: Continuing to move a joint during muscle spasms can worsen injury or cause pain. PROM should be stopped if spasms occur and reassessed to prevent harm.

B. Slowly stretch the joint's muscles if pain is present: Stretching a joint when pain is present can cause tissue damage or exacerbate injury. Pain indicates that the joint has reached its limit, so exercises should be within a pain-free range.

C. Move the joint slowly until resistance is felt: Moving the joint slowly until resistance allows for safe assessment of mobility and flexibility without overstretching or causing injury. Resistance provides a natural limit to the joint’s passive range of motion.

D. Instruct the client to relax during the exercises: Relaxation reduces muscle tension, allowing for safer and more effective passive movements. Client cooperation helps prevent muscle guarding and ensures proper joint mobilization.

E. Support the extremity of the joint being exercised: Supporting the extremity prevents undue stress on muscles and joints, reduces the risk of injury, and allows controlled movement during PROM exercises. Proper support is essential for safety.
