Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition characterized by sudden and severe facial pain caused by irritation or damage to the trigeminal nerve. Trigeminal neuralgia pain is often triggered by certain activities that stimulate the nerve, such as eating, talking, or brushing teeth. The act of chewing and ingesting food can put pressure on the trigeminal nerve, leading to increased pain for individuals suffering from trigeminal neuralgia. Therefore, eating is most likely to aggravate the pain in a 19-year-old student with trigeminal neuralgia.

Question 5 of 5
A female client with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) receives family-planning counseling. Which statement about safer sex practices for persons with HIV is accurate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A latex condom with spermicide provides the best protection against HIV transmission during sexual intercourse. Safer sex practices for persons with HIV involve using condoms consistently and correctly during every sexual encounter to reduce the risk of HIV transmission to partners, regardless of their HIV status. Spermicide, while offering additional protection against pregnancies, does not provide additional protection against HIV transmission. Other contraceptive methods like birth control pills, implants, and injections are not effective in preventing HIV transmission. The intrauterine device is also not specifically recommended for clients with HIV as it does not provide protection against HIV transmission during sexual activities.
