What do you think of when you hear the word metaphor? Do you think of english class? Or how we use them in everyday life? What about how metaphors have a role in how we experience sickness and pursue our health? Whether we know it or not, metaphors are used every single day in the medical field. These types of metaphors have become so common, we don’t think twice about it. But, could these metaphors have a bad impact on the patients? In my opinion, it depends on the person the statement is being said to. Sometimes metaphors can be helpful in the recovery of patients but sometimes they can discourage them.
