<吃蘿蔔乾>英文怎麼說？

打籃球的人應該都有吃蘿蔔乾的經驗，有時接球不慎時就會吃蘿蔔乾；它是屬於關節(joint)扭傷(sprain)的一種，造成指關節(knuckle)腫脹及疼痛，它並沒有像脫臼(dislocation)或骨折(fracture)那麼嚴重，只要休息一陣子自然就會痊癒。

那麼，<吃蘿蔔乾>英文要怎麼說？ eat dried radish? 當然不是囉！讓我們看看下述說明：



If you've played basketball for any amount of time, this probably has happened to you.
假如你已打籃球一段時間，這可能已發生在你身上。

You're going up for a rebound. Or you're trying to steal a pass from the other team. Or your dribbling was disrupted by a defender.
當你向上搶籃板，或試圖對敵隊的傳球抄截，或運球時被防守人干擾。

Whatever the case, the ball was deflected and awkwardly struck the tip of one of your fingers. In most cases, the pain isn't serious, but it's real.
不管是什麼情況，當球被轉向後尷尬地打到你的指尖， 大部份情況疼痛都不會太嚴重，但很真實。

You may have a jammed finger. Even though the ball might have hit the tip of your finger, the injury actually occurs in the knuckle because that's where the brunt of the trauma is absorbed.
你可能吃蘿蔔乾了。 雖然球是打到你的指尖，實際上是傷在你的指關節，因為那裡是吸收損傷衝擊的地方。

A jammed finger is swollen, hard to bend and somewhat painful. It is a common basketball injury.
