Answer: d - "I'll see a genetic counselor before starting a family."

Explanation: Beta - thalassemia is an autosomal dominant disorder that is characterized by reduced synthesis of beta - globin due to faulty messenger RNA (mRNA).

Symptoms include anaemia and intrauterine death.

Since it is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, it means that the woman is autosomal recessive for the disorder. If he decides to marry a man who also has thalassemia, it means that the man is also autosomal recessive for the disorder. For her to weigh her chances of giving birth to offspring that will also have thalassemia despite knowing the implications, she will need to visit a genetic counselor.

NAIL IN FOOT:
If your foot wound is bleeding from the nail, put a towel over it to stop the bleeding. Then use water to clean the wound. If you have any antibiotic cream, apply that and cover your wound with either bandages or some old pieces of clothes.

SWOLLEN TOE:
Raise and rest your foot with the swollen toe when you can. Put some ice wrapped in a towel on the toe for up to 20 minutes every 2 to 3 hours. Take a paracetamol if you can. Do not walk or stand for long period of times if it hurts a lot.
