Dialogue 1
(A young man enters the dermatology clinic.)
N: What seems to be the problem?
P: I have a bad case of acne. All over my cheeks.
N: When did it happen?
P: My face broke out when I woke up a couple of days ago.
N: Have you been under stress lately?
P: You can say that again. I'm a stock broker(증권 중개인).
N: What about your diet? Do you eat greasy food?
P: Well, burgers and pizza. I eat on the run(저는 급하게 먹게 돼요).
N: The sebaceous glands are very active at your age,
and eating fatty food doesn't help.
(환자분 연령대의 피지선들은 아주 활동적이고,
지방이 많이 음식은 도움이 되지 않습니다.)
P: I know but I can't help it(저도 알지만 어쩔 수 없어요).
N: You have to pay extra attention to cleanliness.
Wash your hands and face often with a mild antiseptic soap
and don't touch and pick your pimples. It will leave scars on your face.
P: I'll remember that.
N: The doctor will see you now.
Dialogue 2
P: Hello. My hands feels so itchy.
And the skin is peeling, too.
N: Let me see. Oh! It looks bad.
Where else do you feel itchy?
P: Down the legs and arms.
I keep scratching till they bleed.
N: Hmm. The skin looks very dry. Do you use a humidifier?
P: No.
N: You should. It's very dry nowadays with the heating.
Try to use a humidifier or hang some wet towels in the room.
P: O.K.
N: The doctor will probably run some tests and prescribe you a lotion
and an ointment you can apply.
