Apply a water-soluble lubricant to the nares. 
 Nares is simply the medical term for nostrils and the irritation is likely due to the NG tube rubbing the interior of the nares. Applying a lubricant will reduce the irritating friction. re-positioning either the NG tube or the client might cause temporary relief, but would most likely cause another part of the nares to become irritated, compounding the problem. The lubrication deals with the root cause of the irritation.

If the pride is taken over by new individuals what happens to the female ?
Step2247 [10]

Explanation:

Pride is the social community of lions where they grow, mate, reproduce, communicate, hunt etc. When male lions gets control of a new territory or a pride, they most of the times kill the cubs of the pride because they are not biologically related and do not want to waste their energy by ensuring that the cubs genes are passed on.

They don't want to be stepfathers. Female lions also will not be responsive to mating during the time they are feeding, so killing the cubs allows the male lions to reproduce.
