Yintoni iMeningitis?

I-Meningitis kukudumba kwenwebu yengqondo kunye nentambo yomqolo. Inokubangelwa kukusuleleka kwintsholongwane, ukungunda okanye intsholongwane. Unobangela oqhelekileyo we-meningitis yintsholongwane yentsholongwane. Kodwa i-bacterial meningitis yenye yeendlela ezinobungozi kwesi sifo.

• ifiva
• ndiziva ndigula
• intloko ebuhlungu

Yiya kugqirha wakho ukuba ucinga ukuba wena okanye umntu omthandayo unokuba nesifo se-meningitis. Olu sulelo lusongela ubomi.

Iimpawu zokuqala zokulumkisa

Iibhaktheriya ze-Meningococcal zivelisa kwakhona kwigazi kwaye zikhulule iityhefu (septicemia). Njengoko usulelo luqhubeka, imithambo yegazi ingonakala.

Oku kunokubangela ukuba irhashalala elityhafileyo elikhangeleka ngathi ziipinki ezincinci. Amabala anokuba ngopinki, obomvu, okanye mfusa. Kumanqanaba okuqala ezi mpawu zinokugxothwa njengokonakala okanye ukugruzuka kancinane. Ulusu lunokubonakala lukhanyayo kwaye lunokubonakala naphi na emzimbeni.

Irhashalala eliba mandundu

Njengoko usulelo lusasazeka, ukukhawuleza kubonakala ngakumbi. Ukopha ngakumbi phantsi kolusu kunokubangela ukuba amabala ajike abe bomvu bumnyama okanye mfusa nzulu. Irhashalala inokufana nemivumbo emikhulu.

Kunzima ukubona irhashalala kulusu olumnyama. Ukuba ukrokrela i-meningitis, jonga iindawo ezikhaphukhaphu ezinjengeentende, iinkophe, kunye nomlomo.

Asinguye wonke umntu onesifo sokudumba kwenwebu yengqondo eqala irhashalala.

Uvavanyo lweglasi

Olunye uphawu lwe-meningococcal septicemia kukuba irhashalala ayipheli xa ufaka uxinzelelo kulusu. Ungakuvavanya oku ngokucinezela icala leglasi yokusela ecacileyo kulusu. Ukuba irash ibonakala ngathi iyaphela, jonga amaxesha ngamaxesha utshintsho. Ukuba usenokubona amabala ngokucacileyo kwiglasi, inokuba luphawu lwe-septicemia, ngakumbi ukuba unefiva.

Uvavanyo lweglasi sisixhobo esihle, kodwa ayisoloko ichanekile. Esi sisifo esisongela ubomi ngoko ke kubalulekile ukuba ufumane unyango xa unempawu.

Umonakalo wethishu

Ukukhawuleza kusasazeka kwaye kuyaqhubeka kumnyama njengoko imeko iqhubela phambili. Umonakalo wenqanawa yegazi ubangela uxinzelelo lwegazi kunye nokujikeleza ukuwa. Kuba imilenze ikwindawo ekude yenkqubo yokujikeleza kwegazi, ukuhla kwenkqubo ngokubanzi kuxinzelelo lwegazi kukhokelela ekuhanjisweni kweoksijini ngokwaneleyo, ngakumbi kumalungu. Oku kunokulimaza izicubu kwaye kukhokelele ekuqhekekeni okusisigxina. Utyando lweplastiki kunye nokudityaniswa kolusu kunokukwazi ukuphucula ukusebenza emva kokudlula kokugula. Kwiimeko ezinzima, kuye kufuneke ukuba kunqunyulwe iminwe, iinzwane, iingalo okanye imilenze. Iinkonzo zokubuyisela kwimeko yesiqhelo kunokuba luncedo kwezo meko, kodwa ukubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo kungathatha iminyaka.

I-arch engaqhelekanga

Intlungu yomqala kunye nokuqina ziimpawu eziqhelekileyo ze-meningitis. Ngamanye amaxesha inokubangela ukuba intloko, intamo, kunye nomqolo ube lukhuni kwaye ubuye umva (opisthotonos). Oku kunokwenzeka ukuba kwenzeke kwiintsana nakubantwana abancinci. Olu phawu lunokuhamba novakalelo ekukhanyeni, nto leyo eluphawu losulelo olubi. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango kwangoko ukuba wena okanye umntwana wakho ubonakalisa ezi mpawu.

Iimpawu zolusu kwiintsana

Ekuqaleni kwendlela yosulelo, ulusu lweentsana ngamanye amaxesha lukhula lube mthubi, luhlaza, okanye luthuthu. Njengabantu abadala, banokuthi bahlakulele ulusu olucekeceke okanye irhashalala.

Njengoko usulelo luqhubeka, irhashalala iyakhula kwaye iba mnyama. Izilonda okanye izilonda zegazi zinokuvela. Usulelo lunokusasazeka ngokukhawuleza.

Funa unyango xa usana lwakho lunomkhuhlane ngokungxama.

Ubungakanani befonti

Olunye uphawu lwe-meningitis luchaphazela indawo ethambileyo ngaphezulu kwentloko yosana (fontanel). Indawo ethambileyo eziva iqinile okanye yenza i-bulge inokuba luphawu lokudumba engqondweni. Soloko uqhagamshelana nogqirha wakho xa ubona amaqhuqhuva okanye iintlungu entlokweni yosana lwakho. I-Meningitis inokuba sisifo esibi kakhulu nokuba umntwana wakho akabi nayo i-septicemia.

Izinto ezinobungozi kunye neziphumo ebezingalindelekanga ze-meningitis

I-Meningitis inokwenzeka nakweyiphi na iminyaka, kodwa iintsana kunye nabantwana basemngciphekweni omkhulu kunabantu abadala. I-Virus meningitis inokwenzeka kakhulu ehlotyeni. I-bacterial meningitis ithanda ukwenzeka rhoqo ebusika nasekuqaleni kwentwasahlobo. Ezinye iintlobo ziyosulela, ngakumbi kwiindawo ezikufutshane ezinje ngamaziko okugcina abantwana kunye neendawo zokulala zasekholejini.

Izitofu zokugonya zinganceda ukuthintela ezinye, kodwa ayizizo zonke, iintlobo ze-meningitis. Ukuchongwa kwangoko kunye nonyango kunokukunceda uphephe iingxaki kunye nefuthe lexesha elide.
