Aches and Pains

Here is some vocabulary you can use when talking about aches and pains.
If you know more words about it please leave a comment with the words.

Pain is when something feels unconfortable, it hurts.

"A twinge of pain" -twinge is a sudden feeling but it doesn't last very long, it's not constant, it's not all the time, but it happens quicky and then it goes away.

"Bruise" -A bruise is a often painful spot on your skin, usually it has a different color: dark purple, brown or a little green. It's cause by bleeding underneath your skin, there is blond underneath your skin. It often happens when you are hit very hard by something or someone.

"Strain" - to hurt part of your body because you were working so hard or because you try to do somethingthat was too difficult.
Example: I strained my back while exercising.

"Pulle a muscle in" -to hurt a part of your body, in your arms, in you legs, in your back, wherever you have a muscle. A muscle is what conects bones together and allow you to move your bones. Example: I pulled a muscle in my right arm while fixing my car yesterday.

"Sharp pain" -This is pain doesn't last for a long time but it's a very strong pain, it's a very acute pain.

"Dull pain" -Dull is the opposite of sharp, It describes a pain that is not strong but it last a long time.

"Sore" -Sore means in pain usually because you work a part of your body too hard, the part that is sore. For example when you running and you are not use to running the next day your muscle may be sore, they may hurt.

"Stiff" -Unable to move easily, inflexible, not flexible. For example when you hurt your arm, it may be stiff, its means is hard to move up and down or left and right.

"To throb" -Means to have a pain that starts and stops repeatly, in a random way. So if you hit your thumb, it may throb, it may have a strange sort of pulse that causes your pain.
Example: I hit my thumb with a hammer last night, and they don't throbbing.

"Injury" -It's a problem with some part of your body, usually cause by an accident.

I almost forget to write the meaning of ache. Ache is a kind of pain usually is a doll pain, it's not neccesary serious.

For now that's it. If you know any other word please feel free to post it.
