While assessing a preadolescent client, the nurse notes curvature of the client's spine. Which statement by the parent supports this observation?

“I've wondered why my child won't let me in the room when changing clothes."

"My child has such a hard time finding pants that fit right. They never seem to fit evenly over the hips."

"My child has been reporting back pain for the last 2 or 3 months."

"My child has been taking ibuprofen daily for the last few weeks because of hip pain after walking so much at school."

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

A. The child’s reluctance to change clothes in front of others might suggest body image issues, but it doesn’t directly indicate spinal curvature.

B. Difficulty finding pants that fit evenly over the hips could indicate a scoliosis-related curvature, where one hip may be higher than the other.

C. Back pain could be related to various conditions, including scoliosis, but by itself, it’s not definitive for spinal curvature.

D. Daily use of ibuprofen for hip pain may indicate musculoskeletal issues but doesn’t directly relate to spinal curvature or scoliosis.
