Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
No strenuous activity should occur for 7 days after the procedure. Carbon dioxide is infused into the pelvic cavity to visualize the organs. There are only one or more small incisions with this procedure. The referred shoulder pain that will occur should only last 48 hours.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Since the daughter is only 18, it is not recommended that she receive any of these screenings. Pap screenings are recommended to start at age 21. The HPV test can be done with the Pap test for women older than 30 or who had an abnormal Pap test result. A mammogram is recommended for women age 40 or older since cancers are more able to be distinguished from normal glandular tissue at that age.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia. Evidence supports the theory that shamans chewed cocoa leaves and drilled holes into the heads of patients (letting evil spirits escape), spitting into the wounds they made. The mixture of cocaine, saliva, and resin numbed the site enough to allow hours of drilling.
