Ukuqhekeka kwempumlo - ukhathalelo lwamva

Impumlo yakho inamathambo ama-2 kwibhulorho yempumlo kunye nesiqwenga eside (intambo eguqukayo kodwa yomelele) enika impumlo yayo imo.

Ukuqhekeka kwempumlo kwenzeka xa ithambo lempumlo yakho laphukile. Uninzi lweempumlo ezaphukileyo zibangelwa kukonzakala okunje ngokwenzakala kwezemidlalo, iingozi zemoto, okanye imilo yamanqindi.

Ukuba impumlo yakho igwenxekile kukonzakala unokufuna ukuncitshiswa ukuze ubeke amathambo endaweni yawo. Ukuba ukuphuka kulula ukulungisa, ukunciphisa kunokwenziwa kwiofisi yomboneleli wezempilo. Ukuba ikhefu linzima ngakumbi, unokufuna utyando ukuze ulungise.

Unokuba nobunzima bokuphefumla ngeempumlo zakho kuba amathambo angabikho endaweni okanye kukho ukudumba okuninzi.

Unokuba nolunye okanye zonke ezi mpawu zempumlo eyaphukileyo:

• Ukudumba ngaphandle nakwibhulorho yempumlo
• Intlungu
• Ubume obugwenxa empumlweni yakho
• Ukopha ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwempumlo
• Kunzima ukuphefumla ngeempumlo
• Ukurhawuzela macala omabini okanye amehlo omabini

Umboneleli wakho unokufuna ukufumana i-x-ray yempumlo yakho ukuze ubone ukuba unokwaphuka na. Ukuskena i-CT okanye olunye uvavanyo lunokufuneka ukuze kuthintelwe ukwenzakala okungakumbi.

Ukuba uneempumlo ezingapheliyo, umboneleli unokufaka ipeyinti ethambileyo okanye olunye uhlobo lokupakisha kwimpumlo yegazi.

Unokuba unayo i-hematoma yempumlo. Le yingqokelela yegazi ngaphakathi kwiseptum yempumlo. Iseptum yinxalenye yempumlo phakathi kwempumlo emi-2. Ukwenzakala kuphazamisa imithambo yegazi ukuze ulwelo kunye negazi ziqokeleleke phantsi komgangatho. Umboneleli wakho usenokuba wenze ukusikwa okuncinci okanye wasebenzisa inaliti ukukhupha igazi.

Ukuba unokophuka oluvulekileyo, apho kukho ukusika esikhumbeni kunye namathambo empumlo aphukileyo, unokufuna imithungo kunye nezibulala ntsholongwane.

Ukuba ufuna utyando, kuyakufuneka ulinde kude kube uninzi okanye konke ukudumba kuhlile ngaphambi kokuba kwenziwe uvavanyo olupheleleyo. Kwiimeko ezininzi, oku ziintsuku ezisi-7 ukuya kwezi-14 emva kokwenzakala. Ungathunyelwa kugqirha okhethekileyo- njengo gqirha weplastiki okanye indlebe, impumlo kunye nogqirha womqala - ukuba ukwenzakala kubi kakhulu.

Ngekhefu elilula, apho ithambo lempumlo lingagqwethekanga, umboneleli unokukuxelela ukuba uthathe amayeza eentlungu kunye neyeza zokuphelisa impumlo, kunye nokubeka umkhenkce ekonzakaleni.

Ukugcina iintlungu kunye nokudumba:

• Phumla. Zama ukuzigcina kude nakowuphi na umsebenzi apho ungangqubana nempumlo yakho.
• Umkhenkce impumlo yakho kangangemizuzu engama-20, rhoqo emva kweeyure eziyi-1 ukuya kwezi-2 xa uvukile. Musa ukuyifaka ngqo umkhenkce kulusu.
• Thatha amayeza entlungu xa kukho imfuneko.
• Gcina intloko yakho iphakanyisiwe ukunceda ukunciphisa ukudumba kunye nokuphucula ukuphefumla.

Ngentlungu ungasebenzisa ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn), okanye i-acetaminophen (iTylenol). Ungawathenga la mayeza eentlungu kwivenkile. Kuyacetyiswa ukuba ulinde iiyure ezingama-24 ngaphambi kokuba uthathe amayeza eentlungu e-NSAID ukuba bekukho ukopha okunzima ngokwenzakala kwento yakho.

• Thetha nomboneleli wakho ngaphambi kokusebenzisa la mayeza ukuba unesifo sentliziyo, uxinzelelo lwegazi oluphezulu, isifo sezintso, isifo sesibindi, okanye unezilonda esiswini okanye ukopha ngaphakathi ngaphambili.
• Sukuthatha ngaphezulu kwesixa esinconyelwe kwibhotile okanye ngumboneleli wakho.

Ungaqhubeka nokwenza imisebenzi yemihla ngemihla, kodwa sebenzisa ukhathalelo olongezelelekileyo. Kunganzima ukuzilolonga ngamandla kuba ukuphefumla ngeempumlo kunokuphazamiseka ngokudumba. Zama ukungaphakamisi nantoni na enzima ngaphandle kokuba umboneleli wakho uthi kulungile. Ukuba une-cast okanye u-splint, nxiba le de umboneleli wakho athi kulungile ukuyikhupha.

Kuya kufuneka uyiphephe imidlalo okwexeshana. Xa umboneleli wakho ekuxelela ukuba kukhuselekile ukudlala kwakhona, qiniseka ukuba unxibe oonogada ebusweni nasezimpumlweni.

Musa ukususa nakuphi na ukupakisha okanye iziqwenga ngaphandle kokuba ugqirha ukuxelele.

Thatha imvula eshushu ukuze uphefumle umphunga. Oku kuya kunceda ukunciphisa ukugcwala kunye nokuqhekeza i-mucus okanye igazi elomileyo elakha emva kotyando.

Kuya kufuneka ukuba ucoce ngaphakathi kwempumlo yakho ukuze ulahle igazi elomileyo okanye umsele. Sebenzisa i-swab yomqhaphu efakwe emanzini ashushu anesepha kwaye usule ngocoselelo ngaphakathi kwempumlo nganye.

Ukuba uthatha nawaphi na amayeza, thetha nomboneleli wakho ngaphambi kokuwasebenzisa.

Landela ugqirha wakho kwiiveki ezi-1 ukuya kwezi-2 emva kokulimala kwakho. Ngokusekwe kukulimala kwakho, ugqirha wakho unokufuna ukukubona ngaphezulu kwexesha elinye.

Ukuqhekeka kwempumlo yodwa kuhlala kunyanga ngaphandle kwesiphene, kodwa kunokufuneka kwenziwe utyando ukulungisa iimeko ezinobuzaza. Ukuba kuye kwakho ukwenzakala entloko, ebusweni nasemehlweni, kuya kufuneka ukhathalelo olongezelelekileyo ukunqanda ukopha, usulelo kunye nezinye iziphumo ezibi.

Fowunela umnikezeli ukuba unayo:

• Naliphi na inxeba elivulekileyo okanye ukopha
• Ifiva
• Iphunga elibi okanye elicocekileyo (umthubi, oluhlaza, okanye obomvu) umsele ophuma kwimpumlo
• Isicaphucaphu nokugabha
• Ukuba ndindisholo ngequbuliso okanye ukurhawuzelela
• Ukunyuka ngequbuliso kwentlungu okanye ukudumba
• Ukwenzakala kubonakala ngathi akuphilisi njengoko bekulindelwe
• Ubunzima bokuphefumla obungapheliyo
• Naluphi na utshintsho kumbono okanye umbono ophindwe kabini
• Ukunyuka kwentloko
