Medical Jargon 🩺

Hehehe! It’s Ouija here. Your resident medical geek, and have I been waiting for this? I have. Ok, let’s start with what I know.
Stat - Immediately
Itis - Swelling.
Oral - Mouth
Rectal - Butt
b.i.d - Twice a day
Ectomy - To remove
Scopy - to examine
That’s all I can think of right now. I have a whole book of medical terms, so I’ll be back!

Book is still at home. I’ll get it eventually.

Atypical : something that isn’t completely normal / typical

Comorbid : two or more medical conditions that occur simultaneously in a patient
