Describing Symptoms, Causes, and Treatments Unit 24

FLT Today I am: practicing discussing health conditions. So that I can: explain symptoms, causes, and treatments for conditions. I will know I’ve got it when: I can correctly identify and describe four different conditions.

Discuss a Condition To explain the symptoms, causes, and treatments for a health condition, use the following sequence to structure the information. 1.Name the condition and briefly describe the symptoms. 2.Describe the causes. 3.Discuss treatment options. a.Tell if it is curable b.List treatment options on your weak hand

Example: Migraine 1. Name the condition and briefly describe the symptoms. – To begin, fingerspell the word “Migraine” and then give a description of common symptoms associated with a migraine. fs-MIGRAINE KNOW HEADACHE THROBING STOMACHACHE EYES BLURRY THAT.

2. Describe the Causes To transition to discussing causes, use the following rhetorical question. _________whq CAUSES WHAT? List the causes on your weak hand. Use raised eyebrows each time you refer to a finger on your weak hand to signal that you are naming the next cause. Since causes are often written as noun phrases, you must translate the phrases into action verbs.

Noun Phrases vs. Action Verbs The following are examples of probable causes for migraines. Notice how the Noun Phrases are translated into Action Verbs. Birth control pills – fs-BC TAKE-PILL Food allergies – FOOD WRONG Menstruation cycles – NEW MENSTRUATION

3. Discuss Treatment Options To transition to discussing treatment options, use a rhetorical question with the appropriate phrase to tell whether or not a condition is curable. – Can recover completely CAN HEAL HOW? – Symptoms can be eliminated CAN SOLVE HOW? – Condition cannot be cured, but symptoms can be alleviated CANT SOLVE BUT CAN REDUCE HOW? – Condition cannot be cured, but can be prevented HEAL CANT BUT CAN PREVENT HOW? – Condition cannot be cured, but symptoms can be controlled HEAL CANT BUT CAN CONTROL HOW?

Grammar Notes: Discuss Treatment Options Use raised eyebrows each time you refer to a finger on your weak hand before describing a treatment option. Ways of handling medication terminology. 1.If the type of medicine has a standard sign, use it. 2.If the medication terminology is common and there’s no sign for it, fingerspell it out. You would spell “aspirin” and “peroxide.” Follow with a description of its purpose like “to reduce headache” or “to prevent infection.” 3.If the medication terminology is not common, you don’t need to fingerspell the word, just describe how it is taken (pills, shots, nose spray) and for what purpose. Take the word “corticosteroids” – explain that it is taken as a pill an that its purpose is to provide relief MEDICINE TAKE-PILL PREVENT PROVIDE HAVE-PAIN

HEAL This sign is used when referring to the person’s recovery from an illness that affected the whole body like cancer or from being bedridden and then being able to get up.

SOLVE This sign is used when referring to the eventual disappearance of symptoms such as sores, rashes, lumps, fevers or headaches.

REDUCE In this case, this sign means to lessen the pain or symptoms associated with the condition.

CONTROL This sign means to maintain a constant level where fluctuations are common, e.g. blood sugar, blood pressure, or weight

PREVENT This sign refers to actions taken to prevent damage to the body, or to prevent the body from succumbing to an illness.
