Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3, 6
Angina pain is typically described as pressure, heavy, squeezing, and it is demonstrated by placing a clenched fist over the sternum. This hand posture is referred to as Levine's sign which is the universal sign for angina. Angina pain is not stabbing or sharp.

Answer to Question 2

1
Destruction of the bone leads to elevated calcium levels. The other electrolyte imbalances are not characteristic of multiple myeloma.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
