I-pneumoconiosis yomsebenzi wamalahle

I-pneumoconiosis yomsebenzi wamalahle (CWP) yisifo samaphaphu esibangelwa ukuphefumula uthuli lwamalahle, i-graphite, noma ikhabhoni eyenziwe umuntu isikhathi eside.

I-CWP yaziwa nangokuthi isifo samaphaphu amnyama.

I-CWP ivela ngezindlela ezimbili: elula futhi eyinkimbinkimbi (ebizwa nangokuthi i-fibrosis enkulu eqhubekayo, noma i-PMF).

Ingozi yakho yokuthuthukisa i-CWP incike ekutheni uhlale isikhathi esingakanani uthuli lwamalahle. Iningi labantu abanalesi sifo badala ngaphezu kweminyaka engama-50. Ukubhema akubunyusi ubungozi bokuhlaselwa yilesi sifo, kepha kungaba nomthelela ongeziwe emaphashini.

Uma i-CWP ivela nge-rheumatoid arthritis, ibizwa ngeCaplan syndrome.

Izimpawu ze-CWP zifaka:

• Khwehlela
• Ukuphelelwa umoya
• Ukukhwehlela isikhwehlela esimnyama

Umhlinzeki wezokunakekelwa kwempilo uzokwenza ukuhlolwa komzimba abuze ngezimpawu zakho.

Ukuhlolwa okungenziwa kufaka phakathi:

• I-x-ray yesifuba
• Isikena se-CT esifubeni
• Ukuhlolwa kwemisebenzi yamaphaphu

Ukwelashwa kungafaka noma yikuphi okulandelayo, kuya ngokuthi zinzima kangakanani izimpawu zakho:

• Imithi yokugcina imigwaqo yomoya ivulekile futhi inciphisa amafinyila
• Ukuvuselelwa kwamaphaphu ukukusiza ufunde izindlela zokuphefumula kangcono
• Ukwelashwa kwe-oxygen

Buza umhlinzeki wakho mayelana nokwelapha nokuphatha i-pneumoconiosis yomsebenzi wamalahle. Imininingwane ingatholakala ku I-American Lung Association: Ukwelapha Nokuphatha iwebhusayithi Ye-Pneumoconiosis Weber Worker's: www.lung.org/lung-health-diseases/lung-disease-lookup/black-lung/treating-and-managing

Umphumela wefomu elula uvame ukuba muhle. Akuvamile ukuthi kudale ukukhubazeka noma ukufa. Ifomu eliyinkimbinkimbi lingadala ukuphefumula okuncane okwehla ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

Izinkinga zingafaka:

• I-bronchitis engapheli
• Isifo esingapheliyo se-pulmonary disease (COPD)
• I-Cor pulmonale (ukwehluleka kohlangothi lwesokudla senhliziyo)
• Ukwehluleka kokuphefumula

Shayela umhlinzeki wakho ngokushesha uma uqala ukukhwehlela, ukuphefumula okuncane, umkhuhlane, noma ezinye izimpawu zokutheleleka kwamaphaphu, ikakhulukazi uma ucabanga ukuthi unomkhuhlane. Njengoba amaphaphu akho esevele onakele, kubaluleke kakhulu ukuthi ukwelashwa kuthathwe ngokushesha. Lokhu kuzovimbela izinkinga zokuphefumula ukuthi zingabi nzima, kanye nokunye ukulimala emaphashini akho.

Gqoka imaski evikelayo lapho usebenza ngamalahle, i-graphite, noma ikhabhoni eyenziwe ngabantu. Izinkampani kufanele zisebenzise amazinga othuli avunyelwe kakhulu. Gwema ukubhema.
