Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Acute pain typically has a sudden onset and can be described as sharp or cramping. The fact that the pain started recently and is cramping in nature suggests that this client is experiencing acute pain. The absence of nausea or vomiting doesn't provide additional information about the type of pain being experienced.
