Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Kegel exercises, tightening and relaxing the pubococcygeal muscle, will improve control of the urinary sphincter. A prescribed schedule may help, but every hour is too frequent. Restricting fluids will cause bladder irritation, which exacerbates the problem. Drinking adequate fluids will not help the problem. Overdistention of the bladder will cause incontinence.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Urinary frequency and burning are symptoms of cystitis, a common problem associated with cystocele. Back pain is a symptom of uterine prolapse. Constipation may be a problem with rectoceles. Involuntary loss of urine during coughing is stress incontinence and is not an emergency.
