Question Image

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Spider angiomas. In cirrhosis, the liver is damaged leading to increased pressure in the portal vein. This results in dilated blood vessels on the skin surface known as spider angiomas. This finding is expected due to the liver's inability to process blood effectively.
Choice A (Moist skin) is incorrect as cirrhosis commonly causes dry and itchy skin.
Choice B (Blood in the urine) is incorrect because cirrhosis typically does not directly affect the kidneys.
Choice D (Tarry stools) is incorrect as it is a symptom of gastrointestinal bleeding, which can occur in cirrhosis but is not a specific finding.
