Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The nurse should carefully monitor the client's urinary output to alleviate the symptoms of urethral stricture. Providing a low-residue diet, not one with high fiber content, and administering the prescribed dose of antidiarrheal medications can help to relieve the symptoms of proctitis. A client with cystitis could develop urinary retention; the nurse should instruct the client about the signs of urinary retention, not urinary incontinence.
