A 46-year-old mother of three comes to the emergency department complaining of possible urinary tract infection. Her diagnoses are recurrent cystitis and cystocele. The doctor prescribes antibiotics and tells her to watch for signs of pyelonephritis. He has also ordered the patient an outpatient cystoscopy and a voiding cystogram.
Briefly describe how treatment options are different for this patient’s two diagnoses of cystitis and cystocele? Which diagnosis requires immediate attention and why?
Answer:
Explanation:
Cystitis is totally different from cystocele.
Cystitis requires immediate treatment because it's a bladder infection that must be properly treated because otherwise, it might put one's life in danger due to being an infection.
Cystocele is a bulge of the bladder into the vagina. The majority of cases can result from childbirth. Mild cases don't need treatment. When required, treatment includes a flexible ring to support the bladder or surgery.

Someone I know was climbing a tree, then fell, and broke both arms. Is it painful? Someone tell me about it.
Answer:
YES
Explanation:
When they first hit the ground, the impact makes them forget about the pain. Some people might not feel the pain due to them hitting their head at a certain spot which is dangerous. Breaking a bone is like cracking a part of your body, but instead of stopping the crack it continues till you feel a hard like object penetrating the inside of your skin.
Answer:
If you have had a fall or hit your arm you might feel or hear a snap or a cracking sound.
The main symptom is pain, which will be worse if you try to move your arm. A broken upper arm (fractured humerus) can be extremely painful, so much so that you may feel sick, dizzy or faint.
Other symptoms of a broken upper arm are:
You will be unable to use your arm.
Your elbow or upper arm may be swollen.
Your elbow or upper arm may bruise.
If it is a very severe break, your arm may be a different shape.
You may notice tingling or numbness.
There may be bleeding if the broken bone (or your fall) has damaged the skin.
