Isifo samathambo sinokwenza ubomi bemihla ngemihla bube nzima

Isifo samathambo sibangela ngaphezulu kwentlungu nje. Ikwangunobangela ophambili wokukhubazeka.

Ngokwe-CDC, ngaphezulu kwe-50 yezigidi zaseMelika zinesifo samathambo. Isifo samathambo sithintela imisebenzi phantse yeepesenti ezili-10 zabantu abadala baseMelika.

Xa ishiywe inganyangwa, isifo samathambo sinokuthomalalisa. Nokuba unyango, ezinye iimeko ze-arthritis zikhokelela ekukhubazekeni. Ukuba une-arthritis, kubalulekile ukuba uqonde ukuba imeko yakho inokuqhubela phambili njani kwaye ichaphazele ubomi bakho bemihla ngemihla. Oku kunokukunika inkuthazo oyifunayo ukuba uthathe inyathelo ngoku, phambi kokuba imeko yakho ibe mandundu.

Iindidi zamathambo

Zimbini iintlobo eziphambili ze-arthritis: i-rheumatoid arthritis (RA) kunye ne-osteoarthritis (OA). I-RA yimeko yokuzimela eyenzeka xa amajoni akho omzimba ehlasela ulungelelwaniso lwamajoyina akho. Ixesha elingaphezulu, linokonakalisa intlala kunye namathambo. I-OA yenzeka xa intlala kumalungu akho ephela ngenxa yokuwohloka kunye nokukrazuka.

Xa zizonke, zingaphezu kwe-100 iindlela zesifo samathambo. Zonke iintlobo zinokubangela iintlungu kunye nokudumba.

Intlungu kunye nokungahambi

Ubuhlungu luphawu olubonakalayo lwe-arthritis. Kwenzeka xa intlala kumalungu akho ephuka kwaye ivumela amathambo akho ukuba atyibilike. Unokufumana iintlungu ezinxulumene nesifo samathambo kulo naliphi na ilungu emzimbeni wakho, kubandakanya:

• amagxa
• iingqiniba
• izihlahla
• amaqhina eminwe
• isinqe
• amadolo
• amaqatha
• amalungu iinzwane
• umqolo

Le ntlungu inokunciphisa umda kuhambo lwakho. Ekugqibeleni, inokunciphisa ukuhamba kwakho ngokubanzi. Ukungabikho kokuhamba kuyinto eqhelekileyo yokukhubazeka komzimba. Ukuba ukhuluphele, kunokwenzeka ukuba ube neentlungu ezinxulumene nesifo samathambo kunye neengxaki zokuhamba.

Ezinye iimpawu

Intlungu edibeneyo ayisiyiyo kuphela uphawu lweemeko ze-arthritic. Umzekelo, i-RA inokubangela irhashalala kunye neengxaki zomzimba. Igawuthi inokubangela ulusu olujikeleze amalungu akho ukuba adlamke kabuhlungu. I-Lupus inokubangela iintlobo zeempawu zokuphelelwa ngamandla, kubandakanya:

• ukudinwa kakhulu
• ubunzima bokuphefumla
• ifiva

Ezi mpawu zinokwenza imisebenzi yemihla ngemihla ibe nzima.

Ukukhubazeka

Isifo samathambo singakhokelela ekukhubazekeni, njengoko zinjalo nezinye iimeko zempilo yengqondo kunye neyasemzimbeni. Unokukhubazeka xa imeko ithintela ukuhamba kwakho okuqhelekileyo, izivamvo, okanye imisebenzi.

Inqanaba lakho lokukhubazeka lixhomekeke kwimisebenzi ofumanisa kunzima ukuyigqiba. Umzekelo, unokuba nengxaki:

• ukunyuka ngezinyuko
• ukuhamba imitha ezi-1/4
• ukuma okanye ukuhlala iiyure ezimbini
• Ukubamba izinto ezincinci ngezandla zakho
• ukuphakamisa iiponti ezili-10 okanye ngaphezulu
• uphakamise iingalo

Ugqirha wakho unokukufumanisa ngomsebenzi othile okanye usikelwe umda ekuhlaleni.

Umsebenzi unokuba buhlungu

Usenokukrokrela ukuba unokukhubazeka okunxulumene nesifo samathambo ukuba imeko yakho iphazamisana nomsebenzi wakho. Isifo samathambo sinokwenza imisebenzi enzima emzimbeni ibenzima. Inokwenza nokuba iofisi isebenze nzima.

Iingxelo zokuba umntu oneminyaka engama-20 ubudala osebenzayo ulinganiselwe kumandla abo okusebenzela ukuhlawulwa ngenxa yesifo samathambo. Umntu omnye kwabathathu abaneminyaka yobudala osebenzayo onamava e-arthritis onemiqobo enjalo. Ezi nkcukacha-manani zisekwe kubantu abathi baxele ukuba isifo samathambo sifunyenwe ngugqirha. Elona nani lingangaphezulu.

Iindleko kunye neziphumo zoqoqosho

Imeko yezempilo ekhubazekileyo inokuyiphelisa ngokukhawuleza iakhawunti yakho yebhanki. Inokunciphisa amandla akho okwenza imali. Kungabiza kakhulu ukunyanga nokulawula.

Ngokwe-CDC, iindleko ezipheleleyo zesifo samathambo kunye nezinye iimeko zesifo samathambo eUnited States zazimalunga ne-128 yeebhiliyoni zeerandi ngo-2003. Oku kubandakanya ngaphezulu kwe-80 yeebhiliyoni zeerandi kwiindleko ngqo, ezinje ngonyango. Ikwabandakanya i-47 yezigidigidi zeedola kwiindleko ezingathanga ngqo, ezinje ngomvuzo olahlekileyo.

Ukubaluleka konyango

Ukunciphisa umngcipheko wokukhubazeka, thabatha amanyathelo okunyanga isifo sakho samathambo kwangethuba. Ugqirha wakho unokucebisa utshintsho kwindlela yokuphila, amayeza, utyando, okanye ezinye iindlela zonyango. Kwiimeko ezininzi, ukwenza umthambo rhoqo kunokunceda.

Ngemvume kagqirha wakho, bandakanya ukusebenza kwefuthe elisezantsi kwinkqubo yakho. Umzekelo, zama:

• ukuhamba
• ndikhwele ibhayisekile emileyo
• i-aerobics yamanzi
• tai chi
• amandla oqeqesho kunye nobunzima bokukhanya

Umzamo odibeneyo

Ukukhubazeka kubeka imingeni ebalulekileyo kubantu abane-arthritis. Ukufumanisa kwangoko kunye nonyango kunokukunceda ukuba uyithintele. Ukungahoyi iimpawu zakho kuya kuyonakalisa imeko yakho yexesha elide.

Ukuba ukrokrela ukuba unesifo samathambo, yenza idinga nogqirha wakho. Ukuba isifo samathambo senza ukuba kube nzima ukugqibezela imisebenzi yemihla ngemihla, usenokuba nokhubazeko olunxulumene nesifo samathambo. Buza ugqirha wakho ngolwazi olungakumbi malunga nemithetho yokukhubazeka kunye nezixhobo zenkxaso. Unokufanelekela indawo yokuhlala ekhethekileyo yokukunceda ulawule imeko yakho.
