【兆龙每日英语】在国外去医院看病时常用的英语表达

2015年12月02日 美国投资移民EB5经验谈




在美国生活担心的状况之一就是生病。美国和中国的医疗状况不同,语言又不熟悉,绝对是一件麻烦的事情。别担心,本篇材料就帮你解决这个难题。


1、看病前


首先,第一件事情就是要办理保险(Health Insurance)。


国外的医疗先进,技术高超,服务好,但是费用也是超高的。所以,一定要办理医疗保险,让它们支付部分的费用。但是,不用担心,大部分学校会包括Student Health Plan里面包含了这项。


第二件事就是要进行预约(Appointment)


大部分看病除了急诊(Emergency),都需要提前2-3天进行预约。然后一定要在规定的预约时间,带着个人身份证明的证件去医院就诊。


2、看病过程中


看病过程中,要了解如何去描述自己的症状,以及听懂医生的诊断和指示。


(1)描述症状的初级词汇和句型:

Ache: 指疼痛。 backache 后背疼

Headache 头疼

Toothache 牙疼

Sore: 指肌肉酸痛。 Sore throat 嗓子疼

Sore eye 眼睛酸痛

Sore shoulder 肩膀酸痛

Sore arm 胳膊酸痛

基本句型: I’ve got a …. I’ve got a terrible headache.


(2)常见症状词汇补充:

Fever 发烧

Sneeze 打喷嚏

Runny nose 流鼻涕

Nasal congestion 鼻塞

Chill/ shivering 发抖

Bloated belly 腹胀

Diarrhea 腹泻

Indigestion 消化不良

Constipation 便秘

Cramp 绞痛

Nausea 恶心

Vomit/ throw up 呕吐

Rash 红疹

Itching 痒的

Bleed 流血

Bruise 瘀青

Swollen 肿的

Sprained 扭伤


(3)病症词汇:

Allergy 过敏

Asthma 哮喘

Cold/flu 感冒/ 流感

Cancer 癌症

Depression 抑郁

Diabetes 糖尿病

Food Poisoning 食物中毒

Insomnia 失眠

Hay Fever 花粉病

Migraine 偏头痛

High Blood Pressure 高血压

Heart Disease 心脏病


3、看病后


看病后,就需要去买药。美国医疗和中国的另一个区别就是医药分离。医药总体分为两类,一类是处方药(prescription medicine ), 也就是要去医院医生开具才能购买的药;另一类是非处方药(OTC,即Over the Counter),也就是不需要去医院在一般的药店可以直接购买的药。美国的药店一般称为pharmacy, 或者drugstore,只不过后面的drugstore还会售卖其他日用品。注:美国抗生素(antibiotics)是处方药,会严格控制开具,一般的感冒大多只会让你多喝水,多休息,不会随便给你开青霉素(penicillin)的。


(1) 询问药品和用量句型:

Have you got something for ….?

What have you got for …?

How many tablets should I take?

How much cream should I use?

How often should I take/ use it?


(2) 常见药品词汇:

Pain killer 止痛药

Ointment 软膏

Eye Drop 眼药水

Lozenge 含片

Cough Mixture 止咳糖浆

Aspirin 阿司匹林

Paracetamol 扑热息痛

Penicillin 青霉素


【附录】家里急救箱(First Aid Kit)

Bandage/ Band-Aid 绷带

Gauze 纱布

Scissors 剪刀

Tweezers 镊子

Antiseptic 消毒药水

Alcohol 酒精

Sterile Cotton 消毒用棉
