Indlebe yokubhukuda

Indlebe yokubhukuda ukuvuvukala, ukucasuka, noma ukutheleleka kwendlebe yangaphandle nendlebe. Igama lezokwelapha lendlebe yokubhukuda yi-otitis externa.

Indlebe yokubhukuda ingaba ngokuzumayo futhi ibe yesikhashana (acute) noma yesikhathi eside (engapheli).

Indlebe yokubhukuda ivame kakhulu ezinganeni ezisencane nasebekhulile. Kungenzeka ngokutheleleka kwendlebe okuphakathi noma ukutheleleka kokuphefumula okufana nomkhuhlane.

Ukubhukuda emanzini angahlanzekile kungaholela endlebeni yokubhukuda. Amagciwane avame ukutholakala emanzini angadala ukutheleleka ezindlebeni. Ngokuvamile, ukutheleleka kungabangelwa yi-fungus.

Ezinye izimbangela zendlebe yokubhukuda zifaka:

• Ukunwaya indlebe noma ngaphakathi kwendlebe
• Ukuthola okuthile kunamathele endlebeni

Ukuzama ukuhlanza (i-wax kusuka emseleni wezindlebe) ngama-swabs okotini noma izinto ezincane kungalimaza isikhumba.

Indlebe yokubhukuda yesikhathi eside (esingapheli) kungenzeka ukuthi ingenxa yokuthi:

• Ukusabela okweqile kokunye okubekwe endlebeni
• Izimo zesikhumba ezingapheli, njenge-eczema noma i-psoriasis

Izimpawu zendlebe yokubhukuda zifaka:

• Amapayipi endlebe - aphuzi, aphuzi-luhlaza okotshani, afana nobomvu, noma anuka kabi
• Ubuhlungu bendlebe, obungahle bube bubi kakhulu uma udonsa indlebe yangaphandle
• Ukulahlekelwa ukuzwa
• Ukulunywa kwendlebe noma indlebe

Umhlinzeki wezempilo uzobheka ngaphakathi kwezindlebe zakho. Indawo yendlebe izobukeka ibomvu futhi ivuvukile. Isikhumba ngaphakathi komsele wendlebe singase sibe ne-scaly noma sichitheke.

Ukuthinta noma ukuhambisa indlebe yangaphandle kuzokhulisa ubuhlungu. I-eardrum kungaba nzima ukuyibona ngenxa yokuvuvukala kwendlebe engaphandle. I-eardrum ingaba nembobo kuyo. Lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi i-perforation.

Isampula loketshezi lingasuswa endlebeni bese lithunyelwa elebhu ukufuna amagciwane noma ukhunta.

Ezimweni eziningi, kuzodingeka usebenzise amaconsi ama-antibiotic endlebe izinsuku eziyi-10 kuya kweziyi-14. Uma umsele wendlebe uvuvukele kakhulu, intambo ingafakwa endlebeni. Intambo izovumela amaconsi ukuthi ahambe kuze kube sekupheleni komsele. Umhlinzeki wakho angakukhombisa ukuthi ungakwenza kanjani lokhu.

Ezinye izindlela zokwelashwa zingafaka:

• Ama-antibiotic athathwe ngomlomo uma unesifo esiphakathi kwendlebe noma ukutheleleka okusakazeka ngale kwendlebe
• Corticosteroids ukunciphisa ukulunywa nokuvuvukala
• Umuthi wezinhlungu, njenge-acetaminophen (Tylenol) noma ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin)
• Uviniga (i-acetic acid) amaconsi endlebe

Abantu abanendlebe yokubhukuda okungapheli bangadinga ukwelashwa okuhlala isikhathi eside noma okuphindaphindiwe. Lokhu kuzogwema izinkinga.

Ukufaka okuthile okufudumele endlebeni kunganciphisa ubuhlungu.

Indlebe yokubhukuda ivame ukuba ngcono ngokwelashwa okufanele.

Ukutheleleka kungadlulela kwezinye izindawo ezungeze indlebe, kufaka phakathi ithambo logebhezi. Kubantu asebekhulile noma kulabo abanesifo sikashukela, ukutheleleka kungaba nzima. Lesi simo sibizwa ngokuthi yi-malignant otitis externa. Lesi simo siphathwa ngemithi elwa namagciwane ephezulu enikezwa ngomthambo.

Shayela umhlinzeki wakho uma:

• Uba nanoma yiziphi izimpawu zendlebe yokubhukuda
• Uyabona noma yimaphi amanzi avela ezindlebeni zakho
• Izimpawu zakho ziba zimbi kakhulu noma ziqhubeke ngaphandle kokwelashwa
• Unezimpawu ezintsha, ezifana nomkhuhlane noma ubuhlungu nokubomvu kogebhezi ngemuva kwendlebe

Lezi zinyathelo zingasiza ukuvikela izindlebe zakho ekulimaleni okuqhubekayo:

• UNGAKHABA izindlebe noma ufake ukotini swabs noma ezinye izinto ezindlebeni.
• Gcina izindlebe zihlanzekile futhi zomile, futhi UNGAVUMELI amanzi angene ezindlebeni lapho ugeza, ugeza imoto noma ugeza.
• Yomise kahle indlebe yakho ngemuva kokumanzi.
• Gwema ukubhukuda emanzini angcolile.
• Sebenzisa ama-earplugs lapho ubhukuda.
• Zama ukuxuba ithonsi elilodwa lotshwala neconsi elilodwa leviniga elimhlophe bese ufaka ingxube ezindlebeni ngemuva kokuba sezimanzi. Utshwala ne-asidi kuviniga kusiza ukuvimbela ukukhula kwamagciwane.
