腸胃不舒服英文:胃痛、腹瀉、嘔吐、噁心怎麼說

本文僅教英文溝通用法,不提供醫療診斷或治療建議。若出現吐血、解黑便或鮮血便、劇烈腹痛伴隨高燒、意識不清、孕婦劇烈下腹痛、無法進水、嚴重脫水(嘴乾、頭暈、尿量極少),請立即就醫或撥打 911。

腸胃症狀的英文最常踩到兩個坑:用 stomach 涵蓋整個肚子講不清楚痛的位置與性質。臨床溝通會比較精確:上腹(upper abdomen)、下腹(lower abdomen)、肚臍周圍(around the belly button),以及「悶痛 dull / 刺痛 sharp / 絞痛 cramping」這類形容詞。能描述位置 + 性質 + 頻率 + 觸發因子,就能在診間省下很多反覆問診的時間。
