Ukuhamba nezinkinga zokuphefumula

Uma unezinkinga zokuphefumula njenge-asthma noma i-COPD, ungahamba ngokuphepha uma uthatha izixwayiso ezimbalwa.

Kulula ukuhlala uphilile ngenkathi usohambweni uma unempilo enhle ngaphambi kokuhamba. Ngaphambi kokuhamba, kufanele ukhulume nomhlinzeki wakho wezokunakekelwa kwezempilo uma unezinkinga zokuphefumula futhi wena:

• Kuphefumula isikhathi esiningi
• Thola ukuphefumula okuncane lapho uhamba amamitha angu-150 noma amamitha angu-45 noma ngaphansi
• Ngike ngaba esibhedlela ngenxa yezinkinga zokuphefumula muva nje
• Sebenzisa umoya-mpilo ekhaya, noma ngabe kusebusuku noma ngokuzivocavoca umzimba

Futhi khuluma nomhlinzeki wakho uma ngabe usesibhedlela ngezinkinga zakho zokuphefumula futhi une:

• Inyumoniya
• Ukuhlinzwa kwesifuba
• Iphaphu eliwile

Buza kumhlinzeki wakho uma uhlela ukuhamba endaweni esezingeni eliphakeme (njengamazwe afana neColorado noma i-Utah kanye namazwe afana nePeru noma i-Ecuador).

Emasontweni amabili ngaphambi kokuhamba, tshela inkampani yakho ukuthi uzodinga umoya-mpilo endizeni. (Inkampani yezindiza kungenzeka ingakwazi ukukuhlalisa uma ubatshela ngaphansi kwamahora angama-48 ngaphambi kohambo lwakho lwendiza.)

• Qiniseka ukuthi ukhuluma nomuntu enkampanini yezindiza owaziyo ukuthi angakusiza kanjani uhlele ukuba ne-oxygen endizeni.
• Uzodinga incwadi kadokotela ye-oxygen nencwadi evela kumhlinzeki wakho.
• E-United States, uvame ukuletha owakho umoya-mpilo endizeni.

Izindiza nezikhumulo zezindiza ngeke zinikeze umoya-mpilo ngenkathi ungekho endizeni. Lokhu kufaka ngaphambi nangemuva kwendiza, nangesikhathi sokumiswa kwendiza. Shayela umphakeli wakho womoya-mpilo ongakwazi ukukusiza.

Ngosuku lokuhamba:

• Fika esikhumulweni sezindiza okungenani imizuzu eyi-120 ngaphambi kwendiza yakho.
• Yiba nekhophi elengeziwe lencwadi nomhlinzeki wakho we-oxygen.
• Phatha umthwalo ongasindi, uma kungenzeka.
• Sebenzisa isihlalo sabakhubazekile nezinye izinsizakalo ukuzungeza isikhumulo sezindiza.

Thola umkhuhlane njalo ngonyaka ukusiza ukuvikela ukutheleleka. Buza umhlinzeki wakho uma udinga umuthi wokugomela i-pneumonia bese uwuthola uma wenza kanjalo.

Geza izandla zakho njalo. Hlala kude nezixuku. Buza izivakashi ezinomkhuhlane ukuthi zigqoke imaski.

Yiba negama, inombolo yocingo, nekheli likadokotela lapho uya khona. Ungayi ezindaweni ezingenakho ukunakekelwa okuhle kwezokwelapha.

Letha umuthi owenele, noma okunye okungeziwe. Letha amakhophi amarekhodi akho akamuva ezokwelapha.

Thintana nenkampani yakho yomoya-mpilo uthole ukuthi bangakwazi yini ukuhlinzeka nge-oxygen edolobheni oya kulo.

Kumele:

• Njalo cela amakamelo amahhotela angabhemi.
• Hlala kude nezindawo lapho abantu bebhema khona.
• Zama ukuhlala kude namadolobha anomoya ongcolile.
