The correct answer is; risk for infection.

Explanation:

The nurse's priority will be to check the patient for any type of infection after this procedure. Since the patient is taking medication and having an invasive procedure there needs to be extra steps taken to be sure there is no infection in the wound area, no matter the size.

Since the medicine can weaken the immune system, the patient is at a higher risk of getting an infection from the wound or even from the hospital where the procedure was performed. The nurse will check for redness, swelling, tenderness, and any drainage of the wound.

Why do you think obesity is on the rise in the United States? Use in your own words.
Vikki [24]
Obesity may be on the rise in the United States because fast foods or food with high amounts of fat and calories tends to be cheaper then so called healthy foods such as salads and vegetables. As that’s the case people have the idea to chose the cheaper option. Another reason is because most people’s tastebuds have more of a liking to “fatty foods” then healthier options.
