To assist the woman in regaining control of the urinary sphincter after bladder surgery, the nurse should teach the client to perform which action?

Choice A: Upper back pain is not the correct answer because it is not a common finding associated with uterine fibroids. Upper back pain is a feeling of discomfort or ache in the upper part of the back, between the shoulder blades, or below the neck. It can be caused by various factors such as muscle strain, poor posture, or spinal problems. It is not related to the presence or growth of benign tumors in the uterus.

Choice B: Chronic pelvic pain is the correct answer because it is a common finding associated with uterine fibroids. Chronic pelvic pain is a feeling of discomfort or ache in the lower abdomen or pelvis that lasts for more than six months. It can be caused by various factors such as endometriosis, ovarian cysts, or infection. It is also related to the presence or growth of benign tumors in the uterus, which can press on nerves, blood vessels, or organs and cause inflammation, bleeding, or scarring.

Choice C: Amenorrhea is not the correct answer because it is not a common finding associated with uterine fibroids. Amenorrhea is a condition that causes the absence of menstrual periods for more than three months in a woman who is not pregnant, breastfeeding, or menopausal. It can be caused by various factors such as hormonal imbalance, stress, or weight loss. It is not related to the presence or growth of benign tumors in the uterus, which can cause heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding instead.

Choice D: Diarrhea is not the correct answer because it is not a common finding associated with uterine fibroids. Diarrhea is a condition that causes loose, watery, or frequent stools. It can be caused by various factors such as infection, medication, or food intolerance. It is not related to the presence or growth of benign tumors in the uterus, which can cause constipation or bloating instead.

Choice A: "You seem scared to talk to your parents." This response is appropriate because it reflects the client's feelings and shows empathy and respect. It also opens the door for further communication and support from the nurse.

Choice B: "If you want me to, I can tell your parents for you." This response is not appropriate because it does not respect the client's autonomy and confidentiality. It also may make the client feel more anxious or helpless and may damage the trust between the client and the nurse.

Choice C: "Your parents will have to be told why you are being admitted." This response is not appropriate because it does not address the client's feelings or concerns. It also may sound harsh or threatening to the client, who may fear the consequences of telling her parents.

Choice D: "Give your parents a chance; they'll understand." This response is not appropriate because it does not acknowledge the client's feelings or concerns. It also may sound unrealistic or insensitive to the client, who may have valid reasons to doubt her parents' reaction or acceptance.
