Male adolescents
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a group of male adolescents about testicular self-examination. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Perform the examination following a warm shower. This is because warm water relaxes the scrotal skin, making it easier to detect any abnormalities in the testicles. Showering also helps to wash away any dirt or oils, providing a clearer examination.
Choice A is incorrect because testicular self-examination should be performed monthly, not once every other month.
Choice B is incorrect as firm, egg-shaped testes could indicate a problem and should be reported immediately, not just to the provider.
Choice C is incorrect as any hard lump should be reported promptly rather than waiting a month.
