Question 1 of 5

A 75-year-old female patient presented to the office for an annual wellness visit. During the nurse's assessment, the patient explains she has been experiencing bilateral knee pain for the past eleven months. Based on the duration of the patient's symptoms, how would the nurse categorize the patient's pain?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Chronic Pain. Chronic pain is characterized by lasting longer than 3 to 6 months, which aligns with the patient's eleven months of knee pain. Chronic pain persists beyond the expected time for tissue healing and can lead to physical and psychological consequences. Acute pain (choice
A) is sudden and short-lived. Intermittent pain (choice
B) comes and goes. Idiopathic pain (choice
D) has an unknown cause. In this case, chronic pain best describes the patient's ongoing knee pain for eleven months.
