１本目：【英語で医療面接】頭痛 Headache

台本

Doctor: Hello, my name is Dr. Suzuki, part of the healthcare team that’s taking care of you. Before we begin, can I get your full name and date of birth please?
Patient: Hi, my name is Hanako Tanaka, date of birth is Aug 15, 1992.
Doctor: How would you like me to address you?
Patient: Just Hanako is fine.
Doctor: How can I help you today?
Patient: Yeah doctor, I’ve been having this headache...
Doctor: Oh, for how long already?
Patient: For about 3 days now.
Doctor: Where exactly is the pain?
Patient: On my forehead.
Doctor: Oh, on one side or both sides?
Patient: On both sides actually.
Doctor: Oh I see. How would you describe the pain? Is it sharp? Dull? Pulsating?
Patient: I would describe it as dull.
Doctor: I see. Does the pain move or spread anywhere?
Patient: Nope it doesn’t. It’s just at my forehead area\
Doctor: Does anything make the pain better?
Patient: Hmm not really. Maybe paracetamol?
Doctor: I see. Does anything make the pain worse?
Patient: Hmm not really, but at the same time I’ve been having a lot of discharge from my nose.
Doctor: Oh is it? When did it start?
Patient: Around the same time as my headache.
Doctor: What color is the discharge? Is it just like a usual runny nose?
Patient: No, the discharge is yellow and is quite thick actually.
Doctor: Ah ok. Any cough or fever?
Patient: Actually, I just recovered from a cold about a week ago.
Doctor: Oh I see. Did you see a doctor for that?
Patient: Nope, I just took some paracetamol.
Doctor: Ok, going back to your headache, on a scale of zero to ten; zero being no pain at all and ten being the worst pain you can imagine, how would you rate the pain?
Patient: It’s not too bad actually, I would say about a 3.
Doctor: Is the pain always there or does it come and go?
Patient: It’s always there.
Doctor: Ok. Since the headache started, do you feel like you’re more sensitive to light and sound and want to go to a dark / quiet place?
Patient: Nope.
Doctor: Do you feel like your neck is stiff?
Patient: Nope.
Doctor: Is your headache worse when lying down?
Patient: Nope, but actually my nose discharges are worse in the morning when I just wake up.
Doctor: Ah I see. Has your headache ever woke you up from your sleep?
Patient: Nope.
Doctor: Any nausea / vomiting?
Patient: Nope.
Doctor: Would you describe this headache as the worst headache of your life?
Patient: Nope, far from it.
Doctor: I see. Any loss of appetite or loss of weight recently?
Patient: Nope doctor.
Doctor: Alright. Any weakness or numbness of your face / limbs?
Patient: Nope.
Doctor: Great. Moving on, do you have any ongoing medical conditions?
Patient: Nope.
Doctor: Do you take any long term medications?
Patient: Nope.
Doctor: Do you have any family members with chronic headaches or any cancers of the brain?
Doctor: Alright. Based on what you told me, I think you might have a condition called sinusitis, where the hollow spaces in your forehead area that connects to your nose is inflamed, and there is fluid built up in the area. It may be due to your recent cold. I’ll prescribe you some paracetamol and nose spray, but your symptoms should go away in few days time. Please come back if your headache or nose discharge worsens, or if your symptoms are still persistent - say, in about a week’s time. Is that alright?
Patient: Alright, thank you doctor!
