Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who reports increased pain following physical therapy. Which of the following questions should the nurse ask when assessing the quality of the client's pain?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: "Is your pain sharp or dull?" This question helps the nurse determine the characteristic of the pain, which is crucial in identifying the underlying cause. Sharp pain is often associated with acute conditions like nerve irritation, whereas dull pain may indicate musculoskeletal issues.

Choices A, B, and C are important in pain assessment but do not specifically address the quality of pain. Asking about pain intensity (choice
B) or radiation (choice
C) can provide valuable information but do not directly address whether the pain is sharp or dull.
Therefore, option D is the most appropriate for assessing the quality of the client's pain in this scenario.
