Yintoni phantosmia?

I-Phantosmia yimeko ebangela ukuba uve ivumba elingekhoyo ngokwenene. Xa oku kusenzeka, ngamanye amaxesha kubizwa ngokuba yi-olfactory hallucination.

Iindidi zevumba abantu abanuka zona ziyahluka kuye ngomntu. Abanye banokuthi baliqaphele ivumba kwitrongo elinye, ngelixa abanye benalo kuzo zombini. Ivumba linokuza lidlule, okanye lisenokuhlala lihleli.

Qhubeka ufunda ukuze ufunde ngakumbi malunga nento ebangela i-phantosmia kunye nendlela yokuyinyanga.

Amakha aqhelekileyo

Ngelixa abantu abane-phantosmia banokuthi babone uluhlu lwevumba, kukho amavumba ambalwa abonakala ngathi aqhelekileyo. Oku kubandakanya:

• umsi wecuba
• irabha evuthayo
• iikhemikhali, ezinjenge ammonia
• into eyonakeleyo okanye ebolileyo

Ngelixa ezona zivumba ziqhelekileyo zinxulunyaniswa ne-phantosmia zihlala zingathandeki, abanye abantu baxela ivumba elimnandi okanye elimnandi.

Izizathu eziqhelekileyo

Ngelixa iimpawu ze-phantosmia zinokubothusa, zihlala zibangelwa yingxaki esemlonyeni wakho okanye empumlweni kunakwingqondo yakho. Ngapha koko, iipesenti ezingama-52 ukuya kuma-72 zeemeko ezichaphazela imvakalelo yokujoja zihambelana nomcimbi wesono.

Izizathu ezinxulumene nempumlo zibandakanya:

• umkhuhlane oqhelekileyo
• Ukungabikho komzimba
• usulelo lwesono
• ukucaphuka ekutshayeni okanye kumgangatho omoya ombi
• iipolyps ngeempumlo

Ezinye izizathu eziqhelekileyo ze-phantosmia zibandakanya:

• izifo eziphezulu zokuphefumula
• iingxaki zamazinyo
• migraines
• Ukuvezwa kwee-neurotoxin (izinto ezinetyhefu kwinkqubo yeemvakalelo, ezinje ngelothe okanye imekyuri)
• unyango lwemitha kumhlaza womqala okanye wobuchopho

Izizathu ezimbalwa eziqhelekileyo

Zininzi izinto ezinokubangela iphantosmia. Kuba ezi zihlala zibandakanya ukuphazamiseka kwemithambo-luvo kunye nezinye iimeko ezifuna unyango kwangoko, kubalulekile ukuba unxibelelane nogqirha wakho ngokukhawuleza ukuba ucinga ukuba unakho oku kulandelayo:

• ukwenzakala entloko
• ukubetha
• ithumba lobuchopho
• neuroblastoma
• Isifo sikaParkinson
• ukuxhuzula
• Isifo se-Alzheimer

Ngaba ingaba yenye into?

Ngamanye amaxesha, ivumba elivela kwimithombo engaqhelekanga linokwenza kubonakale ngathi une-phantosmia. Oku kubandakanya ivumba elivela:

• umoya ongcolileyo ekhaya lakho okanye eofisini
• isepha entsha yokuhlamba impahla
• umandlalo omtsha, ngakumbi umatrasi omtsha
• izinto zokuthambisa ezintsha, ukuhlamba umzimba, ishampu, okanye ezinye iimveliso zononophelo lomntu

Xa usiva ivumba elingaqhelekanga, zama ukuqaphela nayiphi na iipateni. Umzekelo, ukuba uyayiqaphela kuphela xa uvuka ezinzulwini zobusuku, inokuba ivela kumatrasi wakho. Ukugcina ilog kunokukunceda uchaze iimpawu zakho kugqirha.

Kufunyaniswa njani?

Ukuchonga i-phantosmia kuhlala kubandakanya ukufumana oyena nobangela. Ugqirha wakho uya kuqala ngovavanyo lomzimba olujolise kwimpumlo, iindlebe, intloko kunye nentamo. Uya kubuzwa malunga neentlobo zamavumba owanukisayo, nokuba uzivavumba elinye okanye zombini impumlo, kwaye ukuba ivumba lide kangakanani ukujikeleza.

Ukuba ugqirha wakho ukrokrela imbangela enxulumene nempumlo, banokwenza i-endoscopy, ebandakanya ukusebenzisa ikhamera encinci ebizwa ngokuba yi-endoscope ukuze ujonge ngcono ngaphakathi kwempumlo yakho.

Ukuba ezi mviwo azikhombisi kwisizathu esithile, unokufuna ukuskena kwe-MRI okanye ukuskena kwe-CT ukulawula naziphi na iimeko zemithambo-luvo, ezinjengesifo sika-Parkinson. Ugqirha wakho usenokucebisa nge-electroencephalogram ukulinganisa umsebenzi wombane kwingqondo yakho.

Inyangwa njani?

I-Phantosmia ngenxa yokubanda, usulelo lwe-sinus, okanye usulelo lokuphefumla kufuneka luzihambele lodwa xa ukugula kuphelile.

Ukunyanga izizathu zentsholongwane ye-phantosmia kunzima kakhulu, kwaye zininzi iindlela onokukhetha kuzo, kuxhomekeka kwimeko yohlobo kunye nendawo ekuyo (umzekelo, kwimeko yethumba okanye kwi-neuroblastoma) Ugqirha wakho uya kukunceda uze nesicwangciso sonyango esisebenza ngokukuko kwimeko yakho kunye nendlela ophila ngayo.

Nokuba ngoyena nobangela wephantosmia, kukho izinto ezimbalwa onokuzenza ukuze ufumane isiqabu. Oku kubandakanya:

• Ukucoca iincam zakho zempumlo ngesisombululo se-saline (umzekelo, ngembiza ene-neti)
• usebenzisa i-oxymetazoline spray ukunciphisa ukuxinana kwempumlo
• usebenzisa i-anesthetic spray ukuze unqamle iiseli zakho ze-nerf

Thenga imbiza ye-neti okanye i-oxymetazoline spray online.

Ukuhlala nephantosmia

Ngelixa i-phantosmia ihlala ibangelwa ziingxaki zesono, inokuba luphawu lwesimo esibi kakhulu semithambo-luvo. Ukuba uqaphela iimpawu ezingaphezulu kosuku okanye ezimbini, nxibelelana nogqirha wakho ukuze ulawule naziphi na izizathu ezibangela unyango. Banokucebisa ngeendlela zokunciphisa iimpawu zakho ukuze i-phantosmia ingafiki kwindlela yobomi bakho bemihla ngemihla.
