Answer:

The nurse must listen to the patient's complaints and initiate tests to locate the source of the pain, being able to choose a more efficient medication or treatment for this case.

Explanation:

Often pain can be caused by complex reasons that only a more detailed examination can show. In these cases, remedies for combating simple pain may not bring the desired relief to the patient, and it is necessary to know the source of the problem, to combat it.

This may be the case for the patient shown in the question above. For this reason, we can affirm that the nurse must listen carefully to the patient's complaints and start some tests and exams in order to be able to discover the source of the problem and fight it efficiently, with medication or other type of treatment.

To ask what his pain level is and to describe exactly what the pain feels like and the location of the pain.  She can try other pain relief measures, change his position, massage, distraction.  If none of these relieve the pain she may need to call the physician for another order for something stronger.  Hope this helps.  I'm a nurse.

The dosage of aspirin in the bottle must be accurate as compared to that of vitamin C because it would not cause any harm to the body if exceeded the limits.

It would be wise to use smaller significant level for testing the claim about aspirin.
