[All OMSB_OEN Questions]

A nurse is assigned to provide health teaching about the prevention strategies for a patient who complains of frequent severe low back pain.

Which of the following exercises would the nurse include in the teaching?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Swimming is an excellent exercise for individuals with low back pain as it is low-impact and helps strengthen the muscles supporting the back without putting undue stress on it. Sit-ups and leg lifts can strain the back and worsen pain, while running is a high-impact activity that can also exacerbate back pain. Swimming promotes flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health while minimizing the risk of further injury to the back.

The nurse must be a comedian suggesting sit-ups or running for low back pain. D is the only option that doesn't involve causing more pain.

Leg lifts? More like leg torture. I'll take my chances with the pool party and go with D.

Running? This nurse must be training for the Olympics, not treating a back issue. Swimming all the way, folks!

Sit-ups? Seriously? That's like trying to fix a broken leg by doing squats. D is the clear winner here.
