Isishwankathelo

Yintoni ilupus?

I-Lupus sisifo esizenzekelayo. Oku kuthetha ukuba amajoni akho omzimba ahlasela iiseli ezisempilweni kunye nezicubu ngempazamo. Oku kungonakalisa amalungu amaninzi omzimba, kubandakanya amalungu, ulusu, izintso, intliziyo, imiphunga, imithambo yegazi kunye nengqondo.

Kukho iintlobo ezininzi zelupus

• Inkqubo ye-lupus erythematosus (SLE) lolona hlobo luqhelekileyo. Inokuba buthathaka okanye ibenzima kwaye inokuchaphazela amalungu amaninzi omzimba.
• Ukufumanisa i-lupus ibangela irhashalala ebomvu engahambiyo
• I-Subacute cutus lupus ibangela izilonda emva kokuphuma elangeni
• I-lupus ebangelwa ziziyobisi ibangelwa ngamayeza athile. Ihlala iphela xa uyeka ukuthatha iyeza.
• I-neonatal lupus, enqabileyo, ichaphazela iintsana. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba ibangelwa zizikhuseli ezithile ezivela kumama.

Yintoni ebangela ilupus?

Unobangela welupus awaziwa.

Ngubani osemngciphekweni welupus?

Nabani na onokufumana i-lupus, kodwa abasetyhini basemngciphekweni omkhulu. I-Lupus iphindwe kabini kathathu ngokuxhaphakileyo kubafazi base-Afrika baseMelika kunabafazi abamhlophe. Ikwaxhaphake kakhulu kubantu base-Hispanic, base-Asiya, nabaseMelika baseMelika. Abasetyhini baseMelika baseMelika nabaseSpain banamathuba okuba babe neefom ezinzima ze-lupus.

Zithini iimpawu zelupus?

I-Lupus inokuba neempawu ezininzi, kwaye yahlukile kumntu kumntu. Ezinye zezona zixhaphakileyo zezi

• Intlungu okanye ukudumba kumalungu
• Intlungu yezihlunu
• Umkhuhlane ongenasizathu saziwayo
• Irhashalala ebomvu, rhoqo ebusweni (ikwabizwa ngokuba yi "butterfly rash")
• Intlungu yesifuba xa uthatha umoya

• Ndiziva ndidiniwe

Iimpawu zinokuza zihambe. Xa unempawu, ibizwa ngokuba yi-flare. Iiflare zinokuthamba ukusuka kubumnene ukuya kubunzima. Iimpawu ezintsha zingavela nanini na.

Ifunyaniswa njani ilupus?

Akukho luvavanyo oluthile lwe-lupus, kwaye ihlala iphosakele kwezinye izifo. Kungathatha iinyanga okanye iminyaka ukuba afunyaniswe ngugqirha. Ugqirha wakho unokusebenzisa izixhobo ezininzi ukwenza uxilongo:

• Imbali yezonyango
• Gqibezela uviwo
• Uvavanyo lwegazi
• Ulusu lwe-biopsy (ujonge iisampulu zolusu phantsi kwemicroscope)
• I-biopsy yezintso (ukujonga izicubu ezivela kwiintso zakho phantsi kwe-microscope)

Luthini unyango lwelupus?

Akukho lunyango lwelupus, kodwa amayeza kunye notshintsho kwindlela yokuphila zinokunceda ukuyilawula.

Abantu abane-lupus bahlala befuna ukubona oogqirha abohlukeneyo. Uya kuba nonyango oluphambili kunye ne-rheumatologist (ugqirha ogxile kwizifo zamalungu kunye nezihlunu). Zeziphi ezinye iingcali ozibonayo ezixhomekeke kwindlela i-lupus echaphazela ngayo umzimba wakho. Umzekelo, ukuba i-lupus yonakalisa intliziyo yakho okanye imithambo yegazi, uya kubona ugqirha wentliziyo.

Ugqirha wakho wokhathalelo oluphambili kufuneka alungelelanise ukhathalelo phakathi kwabanikezeli bakho bokhathalelo lwempilo kwaye uphathe ezinye iingxaki njengoko zisiza.

Kuya kufuneka uxele iimpawu ezintsha kugqirha wakho kwangoko ukuze icebo lakho lonyango litshintshwe xa kufuneka njalo.

Iinjongo zesicwangciso sonyango zezi

• Thintela ii-flares
• Nyanga ii-flares xa zisenzeka
• Ukunciphisa ukonakala komzimba kunye nezinye iingxaki

Unyango lunokubandakanya iziyobisi ukuya

• Nciphisa ukudumba neentlungu
• Thintela okanye unciphise ii-flares
• Nceda amajoni omzimba
• Ukunciphisa okanye ukuthintela ukonakala kumalungu
• Ukulinganisa iihomoni

Ngaphandle kokuthatha amayeza e-lupus, unokufuna ukuthatha amayeza kwiingxaki ezinxulumene ne-lupus njenge-cholesterol ephezulu, uxinzelelo lwegazi oluphezulu, okanye usulelo.

Olunye unyango lolo lungeyonxalenye yonyango oluqhelekileyo. Ngeli xesha, akukho phando lubonisa ukuba amanye amayeza anokunyanga i-lupus. Ezinye iindlela ezizezinye okanye ezincedisayo zinokukunceda ukuba umelane okanye unciphise uxinzelelo olunxulumene nokuhlala nesifo esinganyangekiyo.
