Newest installment of my medical meta series, medical language, a lot of which is rooted in Greek and Latin. Still not a doctor, nor do I speak either of these. (does anyone tbh?)

Previous medical metas can be found here.

apologies for the sheer amount of text, but it’s super hard to find corresponding images

wayfaringmd:

• Risin:  a boil, sebaceous cyst, or abscess.
• Sore as a risin: it hurts. Like a lot.
• Arthur: arthritis
• low blood: anemia
• high blood:  hypertension (thus it is possible to have both high blood and low blood at the same time)
• blood thinners: antiplatelet and anticoagulant medications like Plavix, Coumadin, Xarelto, etc. 

• 

• thick blood: a condition requiring anticoagulation, like stroke, MI, a-fib, DVT, PE, coagulation disorders.
• thin blood: a person on blood thinners. Or a person who is always cold. There is a common thought at least in the south that blood thinners make people cold. 
• clabbered: what milk does in the stomach of a febrile child. As in “she had a fever but I gave her a bottle and the throwed up clabbered milk.”
• vomick: vomit

• 

• fever: anything warm. As in, “this risin’s got a fever to it.” Or “when my arthur flares up my knees get a fever to ‘em.”
• a spell/an attack: anything from a seizure to a panic attack to a stroke to conversion disorder.
• fell out:  a syncopal episode or a seizure. Alternatively, a spiritual experience. “Marlene done fell out at the church again and banged up her head. I reckon she caught the Holy Ghost.”

• 

• drawed up: a contracture or what a person’s limbs do when they have tonic seizures. “He had one ‘a his spells and his arms drawed up real tight and his eyes rolled around in his head for a minute.”
• a minute: any measure of time from a second to decades. Rarely means an actual minute.
• nature: a man’s ability to get an erection

• 

  
  
• electric lights: electrolytes
• the itis: the sluggish feeling a person gets after eating a large meal. “I gotta watch this football game cuz that turkey dinner give me the itis.”
• blood poisoning: bacteremia or blood-infection
• pone: a soft, round nodule under the skin, usually a lipoma
