Practice Question
A 22-year-old client visits the primary care provider for a routine physical.
Answer Choices:
Rationale:
💠 Cigarette smoking is a major modifiable risk factor for lung cancer, especially dangerous when begun at a young age.
💠 Working in a nail salon can expose her to chemical inhalants, which add to respiratory and cancer risk over time.
💠 Spending many hours outdoors with fair skin increases UV exposure, contributing to overall cancer risk.
💠 Exercise regularly is an important preventive measure that decreases the risk of many chronic diseases, including some cancers.
💠 HPV vaccination is recommended in this age group and is part of broad cancer-prevention strategies, especially for HPV-related cancers.
Stroke / Deep vein thrombosis as the main concern
💠 Thrombotic events are not the primary long-term pattern emphasized here, because the case description focuses more on lifestyle carcinogen exposure (smoking, chemicals, UV).
💠 While smoking plus hormonal contraception can increase clot risk, the scenario highlights behaviors that strongly align with future cancer risk, especially lung cancer.
Oropharyngeal cancer as the main focus instead of lung cancer
💠 Oropharyngeal cancer risk from smoking/HPV is real, but the most classic and strongly taught association with smoking is lung cancer.
💠 The stem does not discuss oral lesions or specific HPV exposure history, so prioritizing lung cancer risk better matches standard teaching emphasis.
