A nurse is caring for a male client who has a new diagnosis of genital herpes (HSV 2). Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Anuria: Anuria (absence of urine) is not a feature of genital herpes. B. Green penile discharge: A greenish purulent discharge is more typical of certain bacterial STIs (for example, some cases of gonorrhea) rather than herpes. C. White- or flesh-colored papillary growths in the genital area: Papillary growths describe genital warts caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), not herpes simplex virus. D. Influenza-like symptoms: Primary genital herpes infection commonly causes systemic symptoms such as fever, malaise, and myalgias (influenza-like symptoms), often with local painful vesicles and tender lymphadenopathy.
