A 28-year-old African-American man with a history of sickle cell anemia is admitted in sickle cell crisis. He is in extreme pain. During the admission assessment, a nurse documents the patient has not had a bowel movement for 3 days and has been having difficulty voiding. The nurse auscultated and documented occasional bowel sounds in the upper quadrants. The nurse attempts to palpate the abdomen to assess for a fecal mass or distended bladder, but the patient complains of severe pain. Should the nurse palpate the abdomen more gently to complete the abdominal assessment? Why or why not?
