释义

动词

患上带状疱疹。带状疱疹也称 “蛇串疮”。

DEFINITION

Verb

To become infected with herpes zoster. Herpes zoster is also known in Mandarin as “蛇串疮”.

 

由来
  • 源自福建话或潮州话的 sni tsua 。“生” 在此有患上疾病的意思。
  • 带状疱疹是一种影响人体神经和皮肤的疾病，红疹和水泡通常会从病患的腹部、背部或脸部开始蔓延。
  • 带状疱疹的病源与症状都和水痘相同。这些症状会令患者感到刺痛，即使是轻轻触碰也会疼痛不堪。
  • 有说法认为，由于患上此症的人身上的疱疹看起来像被一条蛇缠绕，因此俗称为“生蛇”。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The term originated from the Hokkien or Teochew dialect term sni tsua. The character “生” here means to be afflicted with a disease.
  • Shingles is a disease that affects the nerves and skin. Rashes and blisters typically appear on the abdomen, back or face, then spread to other parts of the body.
  • The causes and symptoms of shingles are similar to those of chickenpox. Shingles can cause stabbing pain, with even the slightest touch causing extreme pain.
  • It is believed that the disease is colloquially known as “生蛇” (“蛇” means “snake”) as the rashes associated with shingles look like a snake encircling one’s body.

相关资料

  • 根据一些传闻和偏方，若病患身上的 “蛇” 完全缠绕身体一圈，他就会有生命危险，因而必须用特定的偏方 “烧蛇头” 来铲除疱疹。然而，医学专家表示这些都是没有科学根据的传闻，因此呼吁患者仍需接受专业的治疗。

RELATED INFORMATION

  • According to folk belief, if the “snake” makes a complete circle around the body, the patient’s life will be in danger. A specific folk remedy, “烧蛇头” (meaning “burn the snake’s head”), must be used to eradicate the disease. However, medical experts say that there is no scientific basis for this belief, and urge patients to seek professional treatment instead.
