A nurse expects to find which manifestations in the male patient who has both Chlamydia and gonorrhea?

  • A. Painful urination and purulent urethral discharge
  • B. A single, firm painless open sore on the shaft of the penis
  • C. Red superficial vesicles on the shaft of the penis
  • D. A single or a cluster of wartlike growth in the anal-rectal area
Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because painful urination and purulent urethral discharge are classic manifestations of both Chlamydia and gonorrhea in male patients. Painful urination, known as dysuria, is a common symptom of these sexually transmitted infections due to inflammation of the urethra. Purulent urethral discharge is also typical and results from the infection of the urethral mucosa.

Option B is incorrect as a single, firm, painless open sore on the shaft of the penis is a classic presentation of syphilis, not Chlamydia or gonorrhea. Option C is incorrect as red superficial vesicles on the shaft of the penis are characteristic of genital herpes. Option D is incorrect as a single or a cluster of wartlike growth in the anal-rectal area is typical of genital warts caused by human papillomavirus (HPV).
