I would say diabetes because when you're diabetic you have an elevated amount of glucose.  Which causes the narrowing of blood vessels and stiffening in arteries and a decrease in the function of red blood cells. which would mean that white blood cells don't do their job, and fight infection. so with all of this, blood and oxygen flow to the wound are decreased.  So the wound can not receive proper attention from the body because it doesn't have enough nutrients or oxygen to heal.

Describe the function of the each of the following white blood cells:
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Neutrophils are white blood cells that play some very important roles in our innate immune system.

Monocytes are a type of white blood cell. Like other white blood cells, monocytes are important in the immune system's ability to destroy invaders, but also in facilitating healing and repair

Basophils can regulate the behavior of T cells and can control the type and magnitude of secondary immune responses.

Eosinophilic functions include: movement to inflamed areas, trapping substances, killing cells, anti-parasitic and bactericidal activity, participating in immediate allergic reactions, and modulating inflammatory responses.

Explanation:

Neutophils-They circulate around our body in the bloodstream, and when they sense signals that an infection is present, they are the first cells to migrate to the site of the infection to begin killing the invading microbes.

Monocytes-Monocytes are formed in the bone marrow and are released into peripheral blood, where they circulate for several days.

Basophils:-Additionally, they can process and present soluble antigen to Th2 cells against parasitic worms.

Eosinophils-Eosinophils are a type of disease-fighting white blood cell. This condition most often indicates a parasitic infection, an allergic reaction or cancer. You can have high levels of eosinophils in your blood (blood eosinophilia) or in tissues at the site of an infection or inflammation (tissue eosinophilia).

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Assessment finding by the nurse that would assist in diagnosing a patient reporting continuous radiating pain into the groin are,

  1. Pallor
  2. Diaphoresis
  3. Hypotension

Groin pain:

The groin is the place where your abdomen meets your lower body and legs. It's at your hips, above your upper thighs, and beneath your stomach. Groin pain or discomfort is most usually caused by straining, tugging, or ripping one of numerous groups of groyne muscles or ligaments. This is especially prevalent if you are sporty or undertake a lot of hard labour on a regular basis. When you have discomfort on one or both sides of your groyne, it is typically due to an injury.

  • An injury caused by overexerting or overusing muscles in your groyne area is the most prevalent cause of left-sided groyne discomfort. Groin injuries can also create inflammation surrounding the injury, which can make moving even more painful. This form of injury is more prevalent if you are physically active or an athlete. Leg tissues that link the leg to the groyne are commonly strained, sprained, stretched, or ripped in this location.
  • Some of the other causes are Kidney stone, Enlarged lymph nodes, Inguinal hernia, Urinary tract infection (UTI), Ovarian cyst, etc.
