The nurse is teaching a mother care of her childs spica cast. The mother states that he complains of itching under the edge of the cast. One nonpharmacological technique the nurse might suggest would be:
A. “Blowing air under the cast using a hair dryer on cool setting often relieves itching.”
B. “Slide a ruler under the cast and scratch the area.”
C. “Guide a towel under and through the cast and move it back and forth to relieve the itch.”
D. “Gently thump on cast to dislodge dried skin that causes the itching.”
