K: My lower back has been hurting lately.
A: Are you okay? Maybe you should see a doctor.
K: Yeah, you're right. But it's actually been hurting for quite a while. I've been to the doctor and the chiropractor a few times, but they always just tell me to strengthen my abs and back muscles or do some stretching exercises — and that's it.
A: Still, if the pain is getting worse, you really should have it checked again.
K: Yeah, you're right.
K:最近腰が痛い。
A:大丈夫?病院へ行った方がいいんじゃない?
K:うん、そうだね。だけど結構前から痛くて、病院や整体へ何度か行っているんだけどいつも腹筋と背筋を鍛えて、とかストレッチのような運動を進められてそれで終わりなんだよね。
A:それでも痛みが強くなっているのなら医者に診てもらった方がいいよ。
