Answer

Brief Explanations:

OPQRST is a mnemonic for gathering pain - related information. 'P' is for provocation/palliation (right side bending increases pain, heat reduces it). 'Q' is for quality (sharp and shooting pain). 'R' is for region/radiation (right arm pain, pain on right side of cervical spine). There is no information about onset ('O'), severity ('S'), or time ('T').

Answer:

C. P, Q, R
