Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is talking with a client who reports acute lower back pain after moving heavy boxes. Which of the following information should the nurse reinforce?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Use ice packs intermittently for 48 hr. Ice packs help reduce inflammation and pain in acute injuries like lower back pain. Ice constricts blood vessels, reducing blood flow to the injured area, which can help decrease swelling and pain. Using ice packs intermittently for the first 48 hours can promote healing.


Choice A is incorrect because turning the torso at the waist when reaching for objects can exacerbate lower back pain.
Choice B is incorrect because prolonged bed rest can lead to muscle stiffness and weakness.
Choice D is incorrect because using 10 lb arm weights to begin strengthening the back muscles can worsen the pain and strain the back muscles further.
