Answer:

The patient needs lifestyle modification and should come for routine check ups and follow ups.

Explanation:

As given in the context, the patient has high blood pressure or is hypertensive. She also had a typical squamous cells of some undetermined significance. She also had a history of breast cancer in the past.

So the patient need medicines for hypertension and also needs modification in her life styles. She should regularly visit the doctor for health check ups.

I would recommend :

-- regular monitor the B.P of the patient and inform her B.P. level to her.

--   teach her some self health monitoring skills

--  modify the dosage and will change the medications since the patient is suffering from hot flushes and also genitourinary symptoms. These are the effects of medicine amlodipine as well as hydrochlorothiazide that is taken for reducing her BP.

For ASCUS, I recommend :

-- pap smear to be done yearly

-- cytology to be repeatedly done

Yearly mammography is to be recommended for breast cancer history.

Also advice to exercise for thirty minutes daily and reduce the salt content to less than 2.5 g in a day.

In two or more complete sentences, relate the importance of warning signs and early detection of lung cancer. Justify your respo
Tju [1.3M]
Lung cancer is very hard to treat and has usually already spread by the time it's discovered. This is because people who have symptoms usually hold off on seeing a doctor, thinking it is something else, or that it will go away. Early detection is extremely important in fighting this disease. Seeing a doctor right away with any signs like chronic cough, coughing up blood or any other concerns is paramount.

Which action is important in the development of healthy social relationships? A. Sacrificing energy B. Being demanding of others
Rina8888 [55]

Your answer would be  A. Sacrificing energy.


Being demanding of others' time is not an attractive thing. You become too dominant and controlling. Being critical of others is rude, and many people wouldn't want to be your friend. Losing a sense of identity is bad for yourself. It can lower your self esteem, and negatively affect your mental health.


So, with that explanation, the most reasonable answer would be A.
