question about gland
Subject: question about gland
This is a personal question. I just took my 12yr old to the doctor because she has a bulging knot in the crease of her thigh just to the right of her vagina. The doc said it was a swollen gland and put her on antibiotics. I have been reseaching glands and was wondering if this particular gland had a name. The doc talked like this could be serious, but maybe not. I was in shock and did not ask the right questions. Does anyone have any idea. I know this is a site for workers (it has always been a help to me), but I am at a loss. Thanks

how to type out Type I Aortic aneurysm

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN. Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading. Hope that helps!
