Ushwankathelo

Intlungu edibeneyo kunye nokudumba mhlawumbi zezona mpawu ziphambili ucinga ngazo xa kufikwa kwisifo samathambo. Ngelixa le miqondiso iphambili ye-osteoarthritis (OA), ezinye iintlobo zesifo esidibeneyo zinokuchaphazela amanye amalungu omzimba wakho, kubandakanya namehlo akho.

Ukusuka kusulelo ukuya kutshintsho kumbono, isifo samathambo esivuthayo sinokubangela umngcipheko kwiindawo ezithile zamehlo. Qhubeka ufunda ukuze ufunde ukugcina i-arthritis iphantsi kolawulo lokukhusela amehlo akho.

Iindidi zamathambo

Kubalulekile ukuba ufunde indlela ukusebenza kwamathambo okuqonda ngayo ukusebenza kwayo okupheleleyo emzimbeni wakho. I-OA, enye yeendlela eziqhelekileyo zesifo samathambo, ibangela iintlungu ezidibeneyo ikakhulu ukusuka ekuguqulweni kwexesha elide.

I-rheumatoid arthritis (RA), kwelinye icala, sisifo esizimelayo esinokubakho nakweyiphi na iminyaka. Izifo ezizimele zodwa zibangela ukuba umzimba wakho uhlasele izicwili zawo ezisempilweni, ezifana neliso lakho. Ezinye iindlela zesifo sokuqaqamba kwamalungu ezinokubangela imiba yamehlo zibandakanya:

• isifo samathambo esisebenzayo, esinokubangelwa sisifo
• isifo samathambo
• i-ankylosing spondylitis, okanye i-arthritis yomqolo wakho kunye namalungu e-sacroiliac (amalungu adibanisa i-sacrum yakho kwisiseko somgudu wakho kunye ne-pelvis yakho)
• Isifo seSjogren

I-Keratitis sicca

I-Keratitis sicca, okanye iliso elomileyo, ibhekisa kuyo nayiphi na imeko eyanciphisa ukufuma emehlweni akho. Ihlala inxulunyaniswa neRA. IArthritis Foundation inika ingxelo yokuba abasetyhini abane-arthritis banamathuba alithoba okuba bahlupheke kuyo kunamadoda.

Isifo esomileyo wamehlo sinokunyusa umngcipheko wokulimala kunye nosulelo kuba iincindi zakho zamehlo zinoxanduva lokukhusela amehlo akho. I-Sjogren's sesinye isifo sokuzikhusela esiphelisa imveliso yeenyembezi.

Iimpawu

Unokuba ne-cataract xa unamava:

• ukuba mnyama embonweni wakho
• kunzima ukubona imibala
• ukungaboni kakuhle ebusuku

Imeko ixhaphake kakhulu kubantu abadala. Kodwa iintlobo zokuvuvukala kwesifo samathambo zenza ukuba ikati ibonakale nakweyiphi na iminyaka.

Ngapha koko, ii-cataract zihlala zibonwa kubantu abane:

• RA
• isifo samathambo
• i-ankylosing spondylitis

Utyando apho iilensi zendalo zamehlo akho zithathelwe indawo ziilensi ezingezizo lolona nyango lulungileyo lwamehlo.

Ukudibana

I-Conjunctivitis, okanye iliso elipinki, libhekisa kukukrala okanye usuleleko lwelindle leenkophe zakho kunye nabamhlophe beliso lakho. Luphawu olunokubakho lwesifo samathambo esisebenzayo. Ngokutsho kweZiko leSizwe leArthritis kunye neMisculoskeletal kunye neZifo zeSikhumba, malunga nesiqingatha sabo bonke abantu abane-arthritis esebenzayo bakhula ngamehlo apinki. Nangona unyango, i-conjunctivitis ingabuya.

Iglaucoma

Iindlela zokuvuvukala kwesifo samathambo kunokukhokelela kwi-glaucoma, imeko yamehlo ekhokelela kumonakalo kwimithambo-luvo yakho yeliso. Isifo samathambo sinokunyusa uxinzelelo lomkhuhlane oselisweni lakho, oko kukhokelela ekonakaleni kwemithambo-luvo.

Amanqanaba okuqala e-glaucoma awanazimpawu, ngoko ke kubalulekile ukuba ugqirha wakho asijonge rhoqo esi sifo. Amanqanaba kamva anokubangela ukungaboni kakuhle kunye nentlungu.

Isifo sokukrala kwebele

I-Scleritis ichaphazela indawo emhlophe yamehlo akho. I-sclera sisihlunu esidibeneyo esenza udonga lwangaphandle lweliso lakho. Iscleritis kukukrala kwesi sifo. Abantu abanayo bafumana iintlungu kunye notshintsho kumbono.

I-RA inyusa umngcipheko we-scleritis, ke unokunceda ukunciphisa amathuba ale ngxaki yamehlo ngokunyanga isifo samathambo.

Ukuphulukana nombono okunokwenzeka

Ukuphulukana nombono sisiphumo esibi secala leentlobo ezithile zesifo samathambo. I-Uveitis yimeko ehlala inxulunyaniswa ne-psoriatic arthritis kunye ne-ankylosing spondylitis. Iimpawu zayo zibandakanya:

• bomvu
• ubuntununtunu bokukhanya
• ukungaboni kakuhle

Ukuba ishiywe inganyangwa, i-uveitis inokubangela ukulahleka kombono ngokusisigxina.

Jonga naziphi na iimpawu

Isifo seswekile, esibonakala sisabelana ngokudibanisa isifo samathambo, sinokukhokelela nakwingxaki yamehlo. Ngapha koko, isifo seswekile sisodwa sinokwandisa umngcipheko we-glaucoma kunye ne-cataract.

Kubalulekile ukuba ungazihoyi naziphi na iingxaki ezinokubakho kwisifo samathambo. Jonga zonke iimpawu, kubandakanya iingxaki zamehlo ezinokubakho. Ukuba unesifo samathambo kunye neswekile, kubaluleke ngakumbi ukulandela isicwangciso sakho sonyango kwaye ufumane iimviwo zamehlo rhoqo.
