Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for an older adult client who reports occasional constipation. The nurse should inform the client that straining while defecating can cause which of the following?

A) are not directly related to straining during defecation. Diarrhea (choice
C) is the opposite of constipation and is not a common consequence of straining. Gastric ulcers (choice
