The nurse should teach the patient to, "apply a warm compress to the lesions". 

Herpes is a sexually transmitted disease, which has almost no symptoms most of the time. Herpes produces blisters around the infected area, and these blisters may burst to leave painful sores. This is referred to as an outbreak. When managing herpes, it is beneficial to address the blisters and lesions using a warm compress.

Instructions of applying a warm compress to the lesions should the nurse include in the teaching. The client should wear loose, cotton underwear to promote cleanliness and dryness in the genital area. Sitz baths can promote cleanliness and reduction inflammation in the area. A hair dryer, set on a cool setting can be used to carefully dry the lesions in the perineal area. Drinking plenty of fluids is advised to decrease dysuria which accompanies genital herpes. Education for this client should include an explanation of Importance of informing his partners of the disease. Clients with genital herpes must notify their partners of the disease to help avoid transmission. Petroleum products must be avoided because they can cause the virus to spread. The idea that genital herpes is only infectious when visible lesions are existing is false. Anyone not in a long standing, committed relationship, irrespective of present health position must follow safer-sex performs.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

they are Na+, K+ and Ca2+ ion channels.

Explanation:

Ionotropic acetylcholine receptors are also called nicotinic acetylcholine receptors because beside acetylcholine (Ch) they respond to nicotine. These receptors are  primary receptors in muscle for motor nerve-muscle communication that controls muscle contraction.

Two molecules of ACh are required for receptor to open. Since the receptors are  linked to ion channels, the channels open. Opening of the channel allows positively charged ions to move across it: sodium enters the cell and potassium exits.

List four methods that can be used to separate mixturea and give an example of each method​
Evgesh-ka [11]

Distillation, Filtration, evaporation, and Chromatography

The filtration process is generally used to separate a suspension mixture where small solid particles are suspended in liquid or air.

Distillation uses boiling to separate mixtures of liquid solutions. It takes into account that different substances in the mixture will have different boiling points..

Chromatography is the separation of a mixture by passing it in solution or suspension or as a vapor (as in gas chromatography) through a medium in which the components move at different rates

Evaporation is a technique used to separate out homogenous mixtures where there is one or more dissolved solids. This method drives off the liquid components from the solid components
