The client also complains of dull, throbbing pain in his cheeks and teeth on the right side and pain when the nurse palpates the areas. The nurse recognizes that this client has manifestations of:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Maxillary sinusitis. The client's symptoms of facial pain, fever, malaise, swollen turbinates, purulent nasal discharge, and dull, throbbing pain in the cheeks and teeth on the right side are indicative of maxillary sinusitis. The maxillary sinuses are located in the cheekbones, and inflammation of these sinuses can cause the described symptoms. The pain upon palpation of the affected areas further supports this diagnosis. Nasal polyps (
B) typically present with nasal congestion and a diminished sense of smell, not the specific symptoms described here. Frontal sinusitis (
C) would present with symptoms localized to the forehead region, not the cheek and teeth. Posterior epistaxis (
D) refers to bleeding from the back of the nose and is not consistent with the client's symptoms.
