A: Hey, are you feeling OK? You don’t look so good.
B: I’ve got a crick in my neck. It’s really stiff. I can’t turn my head to the left.
A: Ugh. I hate when that happens.
B: Yeah, it’s annoying.
A: Have you tried putting an ice pack on it?
B: I thought you were supposed to use a hot pack?
A: I don’t know. I read somewhere that you should use an ice pack the first day and then a hot pack after that.
B: Well, I’ve got to do something. You don’t have any pain-relief patches, do you?
A: No. Maybe you should go to see a doctor before it gets worse.
B: Yeah, I think I’d better do that. Thanks for your advice. I’m going to take the rest of the day off.
A: 欸,你還好嗎?你看起來不太舒服。
B: 我落枕了,脖子完全不能動。我的頭沒辦法往左轉。
A: 啊,我最討厭落枕了。
B: 沒錯,落枕真的很煩。
A: 你試過冰敷了嗎?
B: 我還以為要熱敷耶?
A: 我不知道。我在某個地方讀過文章說第一天應該要冰敷,之後才是熱敷。
B: 嗯,我得做點處置才行。你該不會有痠痛貼布吧?有嗎?
A: 沒有耶。也許你應該趁沒有變嚴重之前快去看醫生吧。
B: 嗯,我想也是。謝謝你的建議,那我等下要請假了。
