Iqhuma lentamo

Isigaqa sentamo lilo naliphi na iqhuma, ibump, okanye ukudumba entanyeni.

Zininzi izinto ezibangela amaqhuma entanyeni. Amaqhuma aqhelekileyo okanye ukudumba kukonyusa ii-lymph node. Oku kunokubangelwa kukosuleleka ziintsholongwane okanye intsholongwane, umhlaza (isifo) okanye ezinye izizathu ezinqabileyo.

Ukudumba kwamadlala amathe phantsi komhlathi kunokubangelwa lusulelo okanye umhlaza. Amaqhuma kwiimisipha zentamo abangelwa kukwenzakala okanye itorticollis. La maqhuma ahlala ngaphambili entanyeni. Amaqhuma eluswini okanye ngezantsi nje kwesikhumba ahlala ebangelwa zii-cysts, ezinjengee-cyst sebaceous.

Idlala lengqula linokuvelisa ukudumba okanye iqhuma elinye okanye nangaphezulu. Oku kunokubangelwa sisifo se-thyroid okanye umhlaza. Uninzi lomhlaza wedlala lengqula ukhula kancinci. Bahlala bephiliswa ngokuhlinzwa, nokuba bebekhona kangangeminyaka eliqela.

Onke amaqhuma entamo ebantwaneni nakubantu abadala kufuneka atshekishwe kwangoko ngumboneleli wezempilo. Kubantwana, uninzi lwamaqhuma entamo abangelwa zizifo ezinokunyangwa. Unyango kufuneka luqale ngokukhawuleza ukunqanda iingxaki okanye ukusasazeka kwesifo.

Njengabantu abadala, amathuba okuba isigaqa sibe ngumhlaza siyanda. Oku kuyinyani ngokukodwa kubantu abatshayayo okanye abasela utywala kakhulu. Uninzi lwamaqhuma kubantu abadala ayingomhlaza.

Izilonda entanyeni ezivela kwi-lymph nodes ezivuvukile zingabangelwa ngu:

• Usulelo lweBacteria okanye lwentsholongwane
• Umhlaza
• Isifo se-thyroid
• Ukuphendula ngokuchaseneyo

Izilonda entanyeni ngenxa yokwanda kwamadlala asenokubangelwa ngu:

• Usulelo
• Uqhekeko
• Ithumba lendlala yesalivary
• Ilitye kumzila wamathe

Bona umboneleli wakho ukuba aphathwe ngonobangela wesigaqa sentamo.

Biza umnikezeli wakho ukuba unentamo engaqhelekanga idumbile okanye amaqhuma entanyeni yakho.

Umboneleli uya kuthatha imbali yakho yezonyango kwaye enze uvavanyo lomzimba.

Unokubuzwa imibuzo efana nale:

• Liphi iqhuma?
• Ngaba liqhuma elilukhuni okanye lithambile, licombeke (lihamba kancinci), ubunzima beengxowa (cystic)?
• Ngaba akukho ntlungu?
• Ngaba yonke intamo idumbile?
• Ngaba ibikhula ngakumbi? Zingaphi iinyanga?
• Ngaba unerhashalala okanye ezinye iimpawu?
• Ngaba unobunzima bokuphefumla?

Ukuba ufunyaniswe une-thyroid goiter, kuya kufuneka uthathe amayeza okanye wenze utyando ukuze ususwe.

Unokufuna ezi mvavanyo zilandelayo ukuba umboneleli ukrokrela i-nodule ye-thyroid:

• Uvavanyo lwe-CT lwentloko okanye lwentamo
• Ukuskena i-radioactive
• I-biopsy yegilo

Ukuba iqhuma libangelwa lusulelo lwebhaktiriya, kungafuneka uthathe ii-antibiotics. Ukuba unobangela unobunzima obungenomdlavuza okanye i-cyst, unokufuna ukuhlinzwa ukuze uyisuse.
