Michael: Oh, I Pulled a muscle in my right leg while playing with my kids last weekend. It’s hard to walk without feeling a Twinge of Pain.
Nivia: I’m sorry to hear that. Why are you sitting in that Awkward position?
Michael: I Strained my back while exercising. Initially, I felt a Sharp pain and I thought it was something serious, but it doesn’t hurt much now. There’s just a Dull pain when I sit up straight. That’s why I’m sitting like this, Leaning to the side.
Nivia: That’s too bad. Why are you holding your arms that way?
Michael: I got up in the middle of the night last night to go to the bathroom and Bumped into the door. I got a huge Bruise on my arm. It feels better if I hold it over my head.
