Hello. Mt name is xxx, I will interview you and later examine you.
|
Greet |
|
Hey.
|
||
What is your name?
|
Question |
|
Tina Jones.
|
||
Why are you here today?
|
Question |
|
I got this scrape on my foot a while ago, and I thought it would heal up on its own, but now it’s looking pretty nasty. And the pain is killing me!
|
||
Am sorry hear that.
|
Empathize |
|
I appreciate you telling me that.
|
||
When did you get the scrape?
|
Question |
|
Well, I got the scrape a week ago, but the scrape and the pain got a lot worse in the last few days.
|
||
How severe is the pain?
|
Question |
|
It’s really bad.
|
||
Can you describe the pain?
|
Question |
|
It’s throbbing and like, sharp if I try to put weight on it.
|
||
Did you hurt any other part? (Clarified to Did you hurt anything else during the fall?.)
|
Question |
|
Well, at first I thought my ankle was sprained because it hurt a lot right after I fell. But, I mean, I guess I was over-estimating it, because the ankle felt pretty okay the next day and it wasn’t a problem all week. (Clarified to if I hurt anything else during the fall.)
|
||
How has the pain changed over time?
|
Question |
|
At first, it seemed like it was healing up fine and it didn’t give me a lot of pain. But the last two days, the pain got way worse.
|
||
Does the pain radiate?
|
Question |
|
The pain’s worse in my foot, but I feel it moving up into my ankle, too.
|
||
How did you hurt your ankle?
|
Question |
|
I was going down the back steps, and I tripped. . . I caught the railing, but I guess I kind of turned my ankle a little bit. And I scraped up my foot on the edge of the step.
|
||
Can you stand on your foot?
|
Question |
|
No, I can’t put weight on my foot without really sharp pain.
|
||
Can you rate your pain on a scale of 0 to 10?
|
Question |
|
I’d say a 7. It hurts a lot, and the pain pills haven’t kicked in yet.
|
||
Where is the pain located?
|
Question |
|
It feels like the pain is just centered around the scrape, like around the ball of my foot. That’s where it hurts the most, but my whole foot feels some pain.
|
||
Which foot did you injure?
|
Question |
|
My right foot.
|
||
Were you wearing shoes?
|
Question |
|
No, I was barefoot.
|
||
Did you have any alcoholic drinks before the injury?
|
Question |
|
No, I was stone-cold sober. It was the middle of the day.
|
||
Did you use home remedies? (Clarified to Did you use home remedies for your foot?.)
|
Question |
|
Yeah, I made sure to clean it and keep it bandaged. (Clarified to if I use home remedies for my foot.)
|
||
What did you use to clean it?
|
Question |
|
Since it happened, I’ve been washing it with soap and water, and if it seemed irritated, I would put some peroxide on there and then rinse it off.
|
||
When did you go to the ER?
|
Question |
|
I went about an hour after I fell, I think.
|
||
Did you get any medication at the ER?
|
Question |
|
Yes, they wrote me a prescription for some pain pills.
|
||
Do you know the name of the pain pills?
|
Question |
|
It’s called tramadol.
|
||
What dosage of tramadol?
|
Question |
|
I’m not 100% sure, but I think they’re 50 milligrams.
|
||
How often were you taking the tramadol?
|
Question |
|
I’ve been taking the Tramadol morning, noon, and night. [AUDIO COMING SOON]
|
||
Did tramadol relieve pain?/
|
Question |
|
I’ve only been taking the pain pills the ER gave me and staying off it. . . and keeping the wound clean.
|
||
Has your foot bled since the injury?
|
Question |
|
It’s not bleeding anymore. It only bled right after I scraped it.
|
||
What happened after you scraped your foot?
|
Question |
|
I got the scrape to stop bleeding, and then I started to worry that I had sprained my ankle, so Mom and I decided better safe than sorry, and so we went to the ER.
|
||
It is good to seek medical attention
|
Educate |
|
OK, I understand.
|
||
How effective is the pain medication?
|
Question |
|
They only help for a few hours at a time.
|
||
Am sorry to hear that.
|
Empathize |
|
Thanks for saying that.
|
||
How have you cared for the scrape?
|
Question |
|
I made sure to clean it and just keep it bandaged. And I put Neosporin on it.
|
||
How effective was the neosporin?
|
Question |
|
Well, I had to come back to get my foot checked out even though I used the ointment. [AUDIO COMING SOON]
|
||
How often have you been cleaning your scrape?
|
Question |
|
Twice a day — every morning and every night.
|
||
Great. It is good to keep it clean.
|

I haven’t had a mammogram. I’ve just had the exam where the doctor felt around for lumps.
|
||
Any pain in the breasts?

Question |

No. Maybe some soreness before my period, but that seems pretty typical.
|
||
Any nipple discharge?

What is your general health condition?

Question |

Overall, my health is pretty good. I have a couple of problems, I guess, but they don’t bother me too much.
|
||
Any fatigue?
|
Question |

Most days I feel pretty exhausted by the end of the day…I’m tired now, too, but I think that’s just because I slept terribly.

|
||
Am sorry to hear that
|
Empathize |
|
I appreciate you saying that.
|
||
When did your father pass away?
|
Question |
|
It was last year… I guess a little over a year ago.
|
||
How did you cope with your father’s death?
|
Question |
|
Well, right after he died, after the funeral and everything, I just tried to get through that. Mom was having such a hard time, crying a lot, everything made her sad, she was kinda depressed. So I guess at first I just focused on getting things done–groceries, laundry, insurance papers and stuff. Knowing that Mom needed me kinda helped me get through day by day. There was about a month where it was hard for us to get to church. Even getting up and ready for church was too overwhelming. But our church family helped us out, and gave us rides to church and brought meals and all that, so they really helped build us back up. Things were only hard like that for a few months.
|
||
You are lucky to have a great support system
|
Empathize |
|
I appreciate you telling me that.

Grandpa Jones passed away when I was really little.
