Umunwe weMallet - ukunakekelwa kwangemuva

Umunwe we-mallet wenzeka lapho ungakwazi ukuqondisa umunwe wakho. Uma uzama ukuwuqondisa, ichopho lomunwe wakho lihlala ligobele entendeni yesandla sakho.

Ukulimala kwezemidlalo kuyimbangela evame kakhulu yomunwe we-mallet, ikakhulukazi ekubambeni ibhola.

Ama-tendon anamathisela imisipha emathanjeni. Ithenda elinamathela ekugcineni kwethambo lakho lomunwe ohlangothini lwangemuva kukusiza ukuthi uqondise umunwe wakho.

Umunwe weMallet wenzeka lapho le tendon:

• Yeluliwe noma idabukile
• Udonsa ucezu lwethambo kude nethambo lonke (ukuvuthuka kokuvuswa)

Umunwe we-mallet uvame ukwenzeka lapho okuthile kushaya ichopho lomunwe wakho oqondile futhi kuwugobele phansi ngamandla.

Ukugqoka i-splint emunweni wakho ukuyigcina iqondile ukwelashwa okuvame kakhulu komunwe we-mallet. Ungahle udinge ukugqoka i-splint ngobude besikhathi obuhlukile.

• Uma i-tendon yakho iseluliwe kuphela, ingadabuki, kufanele yelapheke emavikini angu-4 kuye kwayi-6 uma ugqoka ubulawu ngaso sonke isikhathi.
• Uma ithenda lakho lidabukile noma likhishwe ethanjeni, kufanele liphole emavikini ayisithupha kuya kwayisishiyagalombili wokugqoka i-splint ngaso sonke isikhathi. Ngemuva kwalokho, uzodinga ukugqoka i-splint yakho ngamanye amasonto ama-3 kuye kwayi-4, ebusuku kuphela.

Uma ulinda ukuqala ukwelashwa noma ungayifaki imvuthuluka njengoba utshelwe, kungadingeka ukuthi uyigqoke isikhathi eside. Ukuhlinzwa akuvamile ukudingeka ngaphandle kokuphuka okukhulu kakhulu.

Isihlakala sakho senziwe ngepulasitiki elukhuni noma i-aluminium. Uchwepheshe oqeqeshiwe kufanele enze i-splint yakho iqiniseke ukuthi ilingana kahle futhi umunwe wakho usesimweni esifanele sokuphulukiswa.

• Isihlwathi sakho kufanele sigaxe ngokwanele ukubamba umunwe wakho endaweni eqondile ukuze ungami. Kepha akufanele kube okuqinile kangangokuba kusike ukugeleza kwegazi.
• Kufanele ugcine i-splint yakho ngaphandle kokuthi udokotela wakho akutshele ukuthi ungayikhumula. Ngaso sonke isikhathi uma ususa, singandisa isikhathi sakho sokutakula.
• Uma isikhumba sakho simhlophe lapho ususa ucezu lwakho, kungenzeka ukuthi siqine kakhulu.

Uzokwazi ukubuyela emisebenzini yakho ejwayelekile noma kwezemidlalo, inqobo nje uma ugqoka ubulembu bakho ngaso sonke isikhathi.

Qaphela lapho ususa umucu wakho wokuhlanza.

• Gcina umunwe wakho uqonde ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho ukucwenga kuvaliwe.
• Ukuvumela umunwe wakho ugxumele noma ukugoba kungasho ukuthi kuzodingeka ugqoke i-splint yakho isikhathi eside.

Uma ugeza, vala umunwe wakho bese ugoqa ngesikhwama sepulasitiki. Uma zimanzi, zomise ngemuva kokugeza kwakho. Gcina umunwe wakho uqonde ngaso sonke isikhathi.

Ukusebenzisa iphakethe leqhwa kungasiza ngobuhlungu. Faka i-ice pack imizuzu engama-20, njalo ngehora uvukile ezinsukwini ezimbili zokuqala, bese kuba imizuzu eyi-10 kuye kwengu-20, izikhathi ezi-3 nsuku zonke njengoba kudingeka ukunciphisa izinhlungu nokuvuvukala.

Ngobuhlungu, ungasebenzisa ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn), noma i-acetaminophen (iTylenol). Ungathenga le mithi yezinhlungu esitolo.

• Khuluma nomhlinzeki wakho wezempilo ngaphambi kokusebenzisa le mithi uma unesifo senhliziyo, umfutho wegazi ophakeme, isifo sezinso, noma uke waba nezilonda esiswini noma ukopha ngaphakathi esikhathini esedlule.
• Ungathathi ngaphezu kwenani elinconywe ebhodleleni noma ngumhlinzeki wakho.

Uma sekuyisikhathi sokuthi i-splint yakho iphume, umhlinzeki wakho uzohlola ukuthi umunwe wakho uphulukiswe kanjani. Ukuvuvukala ngomunwe wakho lapho ungasayigqokile imvuthuluka kungaba uphawu lokuthi imisipha ayikapholi okwamanje. Ungadinga enye i-x-ray yomunwe wakho.

Uma umunwe wakho ungapholanga ekugcineni kokwelashwa, umhlinzeki wakho angancoma amanye amasonto ama-4 wokugqoka isicucu.

Shayela umhlinzeki wakho uma:

• Umunwe wakho usavuvukele ekupheleni kwesikhathi sakho sokwelashwa
• Ubuhlungu bakho buba bubi kakhulu noma kunini
• Isikhumba somunwe wakho sishintsha umbala
• Uba ndikindiki noma ukuncinza emunweni wakho

Umunwe we-baseball - ukunakekelwa ngemuva; Beka umunwe - ukunakekelwa ngemuva; Ukwephuka kwe-Avulsion - umunwe we-mallet - ukunakekelwa kwangemva kokunakekelwa
