hello what can i do for you today hi doctor i've been having throbbing headaches throbbing is when it's pulsating it's like this and you're like oh going crazy headache for the past three weeks oh and how long do they last it depends they can last all night sometimes for five seven hours and it feels like i want to vomit the synonym to vomit is to throw up it's basically this is when you vomit i've tried several painkillers i took the pills like ibuprofen but they don't help they just make me feel worse do you have any other symptoms yeah in addition to that i have sensitivity to light when you have sensitivity to light you look at the light and your eyes start hurting sensitivity to light and after the headache goes away i feel drained drained is like that's it i'm over and if i move my head quickly the pain comes back for a while [Music] from what you describe i can tell that you are having migraines i'm gonna prescribe you some painkillers but it's really important that you take a pill as soon as you feel the first symptoms because if you take your epilator might not help i also recommend you keep track of your migraines because sometimes we're able to figure out oh there are certain foods that are causing this or certain things that happen in your life like lack of sleep or stress hey guys welcome to lingua marina as you might have guessed today we have a class when we're gonna practice speaking and particularly we're gonna work on your vocabulary that's related to going to the doctor's office being sick being at the hospital you will hear some dialogues i'm gonna give you some additional vocabulary let's get into it let's learn some new vocabulary or refresh the words that are already in your brain you just need to extract them so first of all a runny nose runny nose is an idiom that we use to describe what happens when your nose runs basically when you have liquid coming out of your nose that could be caused by allergies it could be caused by flu or it could be just common cold common cold is what you have i know i have it every six or eight weeks because my youngest kid is a daycare and she keeps bringing small viruses back home so common cold is when you just feel slightly unwell but you don't have high fever you're not feeling too sick it's just you have runny nose and maybe you're coughing a bit by the way a running nose is also used but it's less common a running nose is too specific let me explain here when i feel unwell and i go to the doctor i would say hi doctor i have a runny nose but if i'm describing a situation when something unpleasant is happening like my uncle keeps wiping off his running nose with his sleeve like i'm just being too specific i'm explaining what he's doing so i can say running nose but it's very specific so uh runny nose is much more common this runny nose isn't real by the way i'm not a doctor we're just learning vocabulary here we're not treating diseases right just wanted to make this clear rash is when you have red dots on your skin again might be caused by allergy or something else now let's practice these words and phrases let's imagine the first situation you see the doctor because you have some kind of rash so we open the elsa app we select topics and then we have health here let's select in a medical center lesson one have rash is no fun good afternoon my name is dr lee okay and i'm gonna select advanced hopefully i'm advanced okay so the app basically prompts me to repeat phrases and i say hello doctor 90 what did i what did i do wrong here pronunciation doctor okay ninety percent great you scheduled an appointment last night what happened i have a rash all over my body you can listen to the phrase first and then you can repeat okay let's repeat i have a rash all over my body 87 oh no intonation wow try emphasizing the important words in the sentence okay when did it start it started yesterday afternoon and got worse over time you see it's highlighting sounds that i should pay attention to do you have any allergies oh yes i'm allergic to seafood yeah because i said oh yes anyways i think it's great because they give you phrases to repeat and instead of coming up with phrases in your head you're actually pronouncing the right phrases without any mistake and this helps you improve your english did you have any seafood yesterday afternoon i don't think so but maybe the dumplings had shrimp mixed in them finished for english as a second language learners i believe elsa is one of the best apps out there to help you work on your spoken english to train your

the part of your body headache this is what you say when your head hurts or a migraine is another term but it's slightly different from headache because i have migraines i know headache stomach ache stomach ache is when your stomach hurts i'm getting a stomach ache earache toothache so it's really easy to build those words [Music] good morning lingua doctor's office how can i help you hi can i make an appointment with lingua doctor please are you an existing patient yeah yes i am i've seen her before okay what's your name i'm gonna look you up my name is marina mogilco thank you miss

sleep aids are you asking if i have insomnia by the way guys i know that we're all super international here so i want you to start practicing english right away and i want you to write a comment below this video describing what happened when you were sick the last time the last time i was sick i had wrote a virus something you don't need to translate i think it's very common so my daughter again she brought it from daycare and we all had rotavirus and it lasted for 15 hours we felt a really really bad really weak we didn't see the doctor but we called the doctor and they just told us to stay hydrated and get some rest comment down below what was the last issue you saw your doctor for this would be a great exercise to use the words that you just learned or to brush up some vocabulary that you've already had heartburn is very common heartburn is when you feel that something is burning right here like for me the feeling is right here and i got it when i was pregnant especially later in the pregnancy so for heartburn there is special medicine and is basically caused by acid from your stomach severe heartburn [Music] hi what is wrong hi doctor i feel unwell and i keep vomiting all the time we just learned what vomiting is right i'm sorry to hear that how long have you been experiencing this at two days it started on 25th um before bedtime okay let me examine you i'm gonna press your stomach to see where it hurts and then i'm gonna listen to your heart nah it doesn't really hurt when you press my stomach i just feel tired that's good do you remember eating anything unusual before you got this well i don't eat out quite a lot but that day we went to a restaurant with our friends for their anniversary and the food tasted really strange but i thought it was the type of cuisine that they have there okay now i think it looks obvious you have food poisoning it is not very serious you should start feeling better tomorrow oh dear that's what i thought what should i do there is no bill that i can prescribe right away so i would just recommend taking your time to rest make sure to drink plenty of water because we want to avoid dehydration okay thank you doctor but if you don't feel better in 48 hours please call our office we might want to see you again when you have high temperature you say i have fever it can be low grade fever in the us i would say it's like 100 ish remember in in the us we use fahrenheit 99.6 to 103 is considered low grade fever anything above 100.4 if it's your kid especially you need to start getting worried hi i like to see lingua doctor please hi do you have an appointment with us no i don't have an appointment but i'm not feeling well again okay lingua doctor is busy right now she has other patients and all of our doctors are busy today so you need to go back home make an appointment and then come back please please please do something because when i talked to her the other day she said to come again or call you if i don't feel better if you feel really bad i would suggest you go to urgent care but if you want to see lingua doctor take a sit here i'll see what i can do thank you oh miss mcgilko is that you again what's happening i feel very ill i'm coughing and sneezing coughing is sneezing is and i feel hot and suddenly i feel cold all the time let me measure your temperature and let me know if you have any other symptoms and eating makes me sick let me measure your temperature wow your temperature is really high and this looks very much like flu to me so the best action plan is to go back home right now and stay in bed until you start feeling better will you prescribe anything in the u.s most pills have to be prescribed so when you're at the doctors you're always asking for a prescription make sure to drink lots of water take vitamin c and i will also give you a prescription to help you with the symptoms okay let me issue the prescription you're still using the same pharmacy that you were using okay i've sent them the prescription you can collect it right away and i hope you start feeling better but please if symptoms get worse give us a call and we're gonna take care of you okay thank you
