Respuesta :

I think the nurse should first refer the client to her health care provider for testing, evaluation and treatment. This should be done so that a more definitive diagnosis may be done to identify the cause of the pain. According to the level of pain being experienced and other symptoms, the woman could be experiencing a gallbladder disease.
