When visiting Brazil for the first time, many people tend to search for the basic sentences in Portuguese<\/a>, such as \u2018hi\u2019, \u2018how are you?\u2019, \u2018can you help me?\u2019, \u2018where is the toilet?\u2019. And that is very useful because most of the population in Brazil does not speak any other language than Portuguese. However, what if you have a medical emergency? Maybe it is important to learn some medical vocabulary in Portuguese before your trip as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We may think we are always prepared for everything. But when we find ourselves in a foreign country without much help and needing medical assistance, knowing some basic vocabulary might be a life-saver when paying a visit to the emergency room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, public health care is universal and free for everyone in Brazil<\/a>, including foreign tourists. You will not need to worry about medical expenses in case you need it. However, it will not be easy to find a doctor who speaks your native language. Better be prepared to explain your symptoms to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, let\u2019s learn some medical vocabulary in Portuguese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
