Human Body - Medical English

One of the first things you need to know when working as a medical
professional in English is the parts of the body. You will need to learn the names
of the internal (inside the skin) and external body parts. You will also need to
learn the words for the functions of each of these body parts. Here are the
basics to get you started.

Head

Inside the head is the brain, which is responsible for thinking. The top
of a person's scalp is covered with hair. Beneath the hairline at the front of
the face is the forehead. Underneath the forehead are the eyes for seeing,
the nose for smelling, and the mouth for eating. On the outside of the mouth
are the lips, and on the inside of the mouth are the teeth for biting and
the tongue for tasting. Food is swallowed down the throat. At the sides of the
face are the cheeks and at the sides of the head are the ears for hearing. At
the bottom of a person's face is the chin. The jaw is located on the inside of
the cheeks and chin. The neck is what attaches the head to the upper body.

Upper Body

At the top and front of the upper body, just below the neck is
the collar bone. On the front side of the upper body is the chest, which in
women includes the breasts. Babies suck on the nipples of their mother's
breasts. Beneath the ribcage are the stomach and the waist. The navel,
more commonly referred to as the belly button, is located here as well. On the
inside of the upper body are the heart for pumping blood and the lungs for
breathing. The rear side of the upper body is called the back, inside which
the spine connects the upper body to the lower body.

Upper Limbs (arms)

The arms are attached to the shoulders. Beneath this area is

called the armpit or underarm. The upper arms have the muscles known
as triceps and biceps. The joint halfway down the arm is called the elbow.
Between the elbow and the next joint, the wrist, is the forearm. Below the
wrist is the hand with four fingers and one thumb. Beside the thumb is
the index finger. Beside the index finger is the middle finger, followed by
the ring finger and the little finger. At the ends of the fingers are fingernails.

Lower Body

Below the waist, on left and right, are the hips. At the back of the
lower body are the buttocks for sitting on. They are also commonly referred to
as the rear end or the bum (especially with children). The internal organs in
the lower body include the intestines for digesting food, the bladder for
holding liquid waste, as well as the liver and the kidneys. This area also
contains the woman's uterus, which holds a baby when a woman is pregnant.
Lower Limbs (legs)

The top of the leg is called the thigh, and the joint in the middle of
the leg is the knee. The front of the lower leg is the shin and the back of the
lower leg is the calf. The ankle connects the foot to the leg. Each foot has
five toes. The smallest toe is often called the little toe while the large one is
called the big toe. At the ends of the toes are toenails.
