Ubume be-hepatitis C

IHepatitis C luhlobo lwesifo sesibindi esibangelwa yintsholongwane ye-hepatitis C (HCV). Isibindi sakho sivelisa inyongo ukukunceda ukwetyise ukutya. Isusa ityhefu emzimbeni wakho. IHepatitis C, ngamanye amaxesha ishunqulelwa njenge- “hep C,” ibangela ukudumba kunye namabala esibindini, isenza ukuba kube nzima kwilungu ukwenza umsebenzi walo.

Ngokutsho kwamaZiko okuLawula nokuKhuselwa kwezifo (CDC), abantu abaqikelelweyo eUnited States bane-hepatitis C. Abantu abaninzi abazi ukuba banesifo kuba i-hepatitis C inokuthi ingabonakali. Oku kuthetha ukuba awunakuba nazimpawu.

Ngokwe-CDC, amadoda abelana ngesondo namanye amadoda anomngcipheko ophezulu wokufumana i-hepatitis C. Nangona kunjalo, ukuziqhelanisa nokwabelana ngesondo ngokukhuselekileyo kunye nokuthatha ezinye izinto zokukhusela ezempilo kunokuwunciphisa lo mngcipheko.

Into eyindoda

Amadoda anakho kancinci kunabafazi ukulwa intsholongwane ye-hepatitis C bakube bosulelekile. Ngokwezifundo, amadoda anamaqondo asezantsi asezantsi kunabasetyhini. Ukucaciswa kwenqanaba kukukwazi komzimba ukukhupha intsholongwane ukuze ingabonakali. Ambalwa amadoda akwaziyo ukuyicoca intsholongwane kunabafazi. Isizathu salo mahluko, nangona kunjalo, asicacanga kwizazinzulu. Izinto ezinokubakho zibandakanya:

• ubudala bokuba umntu wosulelwa yi-hepatitis C
• ingaba unalo na olunye usulelo, olunjenge-HIV
• indlela yosulelo, njengokutofelwa igazi, ukunxibelelana ngokwesondo, okanye ukusebenzisa iziyobisi

Isasazeka njani ihepatitis C kwaye ngubani oyifumanayo?

IHepatitis C sisifo esihanjiswa ligazi. Oku kuthetha ukuba unokuyifumana kuphela ngokudibana kwegazi negazi nomntu osuleleke yi-HCV. Ukuqhagamshelana negazi kuya kwigazi kunokwenzeka ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo, kubandakanya isondo.

Abo babelana ngesondo ezimpundwini banomngcipheko owandileyo wokufumana intsholongwane ye-hepatitis C kuba izicwili ezibuthathaka zendlela yokuphuma kungenzeka ukuba zikrazule kwaye zophe. Akunyanzelekanga ukuba kubekho igazi elininzi lokudlulisa intsholongwane ye-HCV. Nokuba iinyembezi ezincinanana esikhumbeni ezingabonakali zokopha zinokwanela ukuhambisa.

Unokuba nomngcipheko ophezulu wokufumana i-hepatitis C ukuba:

• yabelana ngeenaliti zokutofa iziyobisi zokuzonwabisa
• fumana umvambo okanye ukugqobhoza umzimba kwenziwa ngeenaliti ezimdaka
• kufuneka unyango lwe-kidney dialysis ixesha elide
• wafakelwa ilungu okanye watofelwa igazi ngaphambi kuka-1992
• une-HIV okanye i-AIDS
• bazalwa phakathi kowe-1945 nowe-1964

Nokuba awubandakanyeki ekuziphatheni okusemngciphekweni omkhulu, unokufumana i-hepatitis C ngenxa yokusebenzisa ibrashi yamazinyo okanye incakuba yomntu osulelekileyo.

Iindidi ezimbini zehepatitis C

IHepatitis C eqhuba ikhosi yayo ngaphandle konyango kwithuba elifutshane ibizwa ngokuba yi-"acute" hepatitis. Amadoda nabasetyhini abane-hepatitis C ebukhali bahlala besilwa nosulelo lwe-HCV kwisithuba seenyanga ezintandathu.

I-hepatitis C engapheliyo yindlela ehlala ihleli yesifo sesibindi. Amajoni akho omzimba usenokungaphumeleli ukulwa nentsholongwane, kwaye ihlala emzimbeni wakho ixesha elide. Ukunganyangwa kwe-hepatitis C enganyangekiyo kunokukhokelela kumonakalo wesibindi kunye nomhlaza wesibindi.

Ziintoni iimpawu zehepatitis C?

Esinye sezizathu zokuba i-hepatitis C ibe nomonakalo omninzi kukuba kunokwenzeka ukuba ube nayo iminyaka ungazi. Abanye abaguli abanakho ukubonisa naziphi na iimpawu zentsholongwane yokuqala de isifo siqhubele phambili kakhulu. Ngokwe-National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse (NDDIC), ukonakala kwesibindi kunye neempawu ze-hepatitis C azinakukhula ziye kuthi ga kwi-10 okanye ngaphezulu kweminyaka emva kosulelo lwentsholongwane.

Nangona i-hepatitis C ingabonakali kwabanye abantu, abanye abantu banokuba neempawu zokugula kwiinyanga ezimbalwa zokuvezwa kwintsholongwane, njenge:

• ukudinwa
• ubumthubi bezimhlophe zamehlo, okanye i-jaundice
• isisu esibuhlungu
• ukukhathazeka kwezihlunu
• urhudo
• isisu esimoshakele
• Ukuphelelwa ngumdla wokutya
• ifiva
• umchamo omnyama-mnyama
• izitulo zombala wodongwe

Ndazi njani ukuba ndinesifo ihepatitis C?

Ukuba ukhathazekile usenokuba ubonakalisiwe kwi-HCV, thetha nogqirha wakho. Baza kuqhuba uvavanyo lwegazi ukumisela ukuba une-hepatitis C. Awunyanzelekanga ukuba ulinde iimpawu zovavanyo lwe-hepatitis C. Nxibelelana nogqirha wakho ukuba ucinga ukuba usemngciphekweni omkhulu we-hepatitis C.

Ugqirha wakho unokwenza kwakhona i-biopsy yesibindi sakho. Oku kuthetha ukuba baya kusebenzisa inaliti ukususa iqhekeza lesibindi sakho ukuvavanywa elebhu. I-biopsy inokunceda ugqirha wakho ukuba abone imeko yesibindi.

Ukunyanga i-hepatitis C

Ukuba une-hepatitis C ebukhali, kukho ithuba lokuba ungadingi unyango. Ugqirha wakho kunokwenzeka ukuba abeke esweni imeko yakho rhoqo ngokukucela ukuba uxele iimpawu ezintsha kunye nokulinganisa ukusebenza kwesibindi ngovavanyo lwegazi.

I-hepatitis C engapheliyo kufuneka inyangwe ukunciphisa okanye ukuthintela ukonakala kwesibindi. Amayeza okulwa neentsholongwane anceda umzimba wakho ukuba ulwe neHCV. Unyango lwe-hepatitis engapheliyo lungahlala kwiinyanga ezimbini ukuya kwezintandathu. Ngeli xesha, uya kuba negazi eliqhelekileyo lokutsala imeko yakho.

Kwezinye iimeko, i-hepatitis C yonakalisa isibindi kangangokuba ingasasebenzi. Ukufakelwa kwesibindi kunokufuneka. Nangona kunjalo, oku kunqabile ukuba usulelo lubanjwe kwangoko.

Uthintelo

Amadoda angathatha amanyathelo okuphepha ukuboniswa kwi-HCV kwaye azigcine kunye nabanye besempilweni. Ukusebenzisa ikhondom kuzo zonke iintlobo zesondo yenye yeendlela zokuzikhusela. Elinye inyathelo elifanelekileyo lokuthintela ukunxiba iiglavu zerabha xa udibana negazi lomnye umntu okanye amanxeba avulekileyo. Kuphephe ukwabelana ngezinto zakho ezinje ngezixhobo zokucheba, iibrashi zamazinyo, kunye neziyobisi.
