💐Phrases A Patient Might Say:
“I HAVE A RASH ON MY ARM, AND IT’S VERY ITCHY.”
A rash is a red, irritated area on the surface of your skin. If it’s itchy, it means you feel an annoying sensation that makes you want to scratch it with your nails.
“I FEEL A SHARP PAIN WHEN I BEND MY KNEE.”
A sharp pain is a strong, sudden pain. The opposite is a dull pain – a feeling that is weaker and more continuous.
“MY STOMACH HURTS AND I’VE LOST MY APPETITE.”
To describe the pain you’re feeling, you can say “My + [body part] hurts.” If you’ve lost your appetite, it means you have no desire to eat.
“MY NECK IS STIFF AND SORE. I THINK I’VE PULLED A MUSCLE.”
If a body part is stiff, it means that it has less ability to move than normal. The word sore means that it’s continuously painful, usually when you’ve used a muscle too much. We usually use “sore” for muscles and for a sore throat. To pull a muscle means to extend a muscle beyond the normal point, and injure it.
“WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS FOR TREATMENT?”
The word treatment refers to the methods for helping you get better from a health problem. Some diseases can be cured (completely eliminated from your body), and others cannot be cured, but their symptoms (signs and effects of the disease) can be treated (made better or more tolerable).
“AM I GOING TO NEED SURGERY?”
Surgery is when a doctor (called a surgeon) cuts open your body to make repairs on your insides. Surgery can also be called an operation. The verbs for the doctor doing this action are to operate or to perform surgery. We usually say that the patient has/had an operation or has/had surgery.
“I’D LIKE TO GET A SECOND OPINION.”
A second opinion is when you talk to a different doctor to see if he has a different opinion about your health problem or treatment options.
“THAT’S A RELIEF!”
You can say this when the doctor gives you some good news! A relief is something that makes you happy after you were worried about it.
