The nurse is assessing the client. Which findings should the nurse associate with herpes zoster?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The nurse should associate pain and pruritus (itching) with herpes zoster. Herpes zoster follows the path of peripheral sensory nerves; symptoms come from the nerve involvement.
