A 52-year-old man with low back pain and sciatica on the left side has been referred to you by his
family physician. He had a discectomy and laminectomy on two separate occasions about 5 to 7 years
ago. No imaging studies have been performed since that time. What follow-up questions should you
ask to screen for medical disease? - ANSWER: The first question should always be, "Did you actually
see your physician?" Then ask questions directed at assessing for the presence of constitutional
symptoms. For example, after paraphrasing what the client has told you, ask, "Are you having any
other symptoms of any kind in your body that you haven't mentioned?" If no, ask more specifically
about the presence of associated signs and symptoms, including naming constitutional symptoms one
by one. Follow up with Special Questions for Men (see Appendix B-21).

pain right now?

, A 52-year-old woman with shoulder pain tells you that she has pain at night that awakens her. After
asking a series of follow-up questions, you are able to determine that she had trouble falling asleep
because her pain increases when she goes to bed. Once she falls asleep, she wakes up as soon as she
rolls onto that side. What is the most likely explanation for this pain behavior?
a. Minimal distractions heighten a person's awareness of musculoskeletal discomfort.
b. This is a systematic pattern that is associated with a neoplasm.
c. It is impossible to tell.
d. This represents a chronic clinical presentation of a musculoskeletal problem. - ANSWER: a. Minimal
distractions heighten a person's awareness of musculoskeletal discomfort.

Pain that wakes a client up as soon as he or she rolls onto that side is indicative of an acute
inflammatory process. Night pain associated with neoplasm is more likely to wake the client up after
he or she falls asleep, when the tumor keeps normal tissue from obtaining essential blood and
nutrients, thus creating tissue ischemia and subsequent pain. With chronic musculoskeletal
conditions, the client can often get to sleep with just the right positioning and may even be able to
sleep on that side for up to an hour or two before pressure and ischemia develop, causing pain.

symptoms in:
a. The left shoulder
