with my toe." On examination, the nurse practitioner notes the presence of hard,
painless nodules over the great toe; one had burst open with a chalky discharge.

chronic gout in and around the joint that cause extreme swelling and joint
deformity.

she has had a breast lump in her right breast for years. Recently, it has begun to
change in consistency and is becoming harder. She reports that 5 years ago her

quadrant at 1 o’clock, approximately 5 cm from the nipple. It is firm, mobile,
nontender, with borders that are not well defined. The nurse’s recommendation
to her is:-“Because of the change in consistency of the lump, it should be further
evaluated by a physician.”
