Ukubalwa kwamangqamuzana amhlophe egazi aphansi nomdlavuza

Amaseli egazi amhlophe (ama-WBCs) alwa nezifo ezivela kubhaktheriya, amagciwane, isikhunta, nezinye izifo (izinto ezibanga ukutheleleka). Uhlobo olulodwa olubalulekile lwe-WBC yi-neutrophil. Lawa maseli enziwa emnkantsheni wethambo futhi ahamba egazini umzimba wonke. Zizwa ukutheleleka, zibuthana ezindaweni zokutheleleka, futhi zibulale amagciwane.

Lapho umzimba unama-neutrophils ambalwa kakhulu, isimo sibizwa nge-neutropenia. Lokhu kwenza kube nzima emzimbeni ukulwa nezifo. Ngenxa yalokho umuntu maningi amathuba okuthi agule ezifweni. Ngokuvamile, umuntu omdala one-neutrophils engaphansi kwenkulungwane ku-microliter yegazi une-neutropenia.

Uma isibalo se-neutrophil siphansi kakhulu, singaphansi kwama-neutrophils angaphansi kwama-500 ku-microliter yegazi, ibizwa ngokuthi yi-neutropenia eqinile. Lapho isibalo se-neutrophil sehla, ngisho nama-bacterium ngokuvamile ahlala emlonyeni, esikhumbeni nasemathunjini angadala izifo ezinkulu.

Umuntu onomdlavuza angaba nesibalo esiphansi se-WBC kusuka kumdlavuza noma ekwelashweni komdlavuza. Umdlavuza kungenzeka usemnkantsheni wethambo, ubangele ukuthi kwenziwe ama-neutrophil ambalwa. Isibalo se-WBC singabuye sehle lapho umdlavuza welashwa ngemithi yokwelapha ngamakhemikhali, eyehlisa ukukhiqizwa komnkantsha wama-WBC anempilo.

Lapho igazi lakho lihlolwa, cela isibalo sakho se-WBC futhi ikakhulukazi, isibalo sakho se-neutrophil. Uma izibalo zakho ziphansi, yenza okusemandleni akho ukuvikela ukutheleleka. Zazi izimpawu zokutheleleka nokuthi yini okufanele uyenze uma unazo.

Vikela ukutheleleka ngokuthatha izinyathelo ezilandelayo:

• Qaphela izilwane ezifuywayo nezinye izilwane ukugwema ukubamba izifo kuzo.
• Prakthiza imikhuba yokudla nokuphuza ephephile.
• Geza izandla zakho kaningi ngensipho namanzi.
• Hlala kude nabantu abanezimpawu zokutheleleka.
• Gwema ukuhamba izindawo zomphakathi ezigcwele.

Uma unezinye zalezi zimpawu ezilandelayo, shayela umhlinzeki wakho wezokunakekelwa kwempilo:

• Imfiva, ukubanda, noma ukujuluka. Lokhu kungaba yizimpawu zokutheleleka.
• Uhudo olungapheli noma olunegazi.
• Isicanucanu esikhulu nokuhlanza.
• Ukungakwazi ukudla noma ukuphuza.
• Ubuthakathaka obukhulu.
• Ububomvu, ukuvuvukala, noma amanzi avela kunoma iyiphi indawo lapho ufakwe khona umugqa we-IV emzimbeni wakho.
• Ukuqhuma okusha kwesikhumba noma amabhamuza.
• Ubuhlungu endaweni yakho yesisu.
• Ikhanda elibuhlungu kakhulu noma elingapheli.
• Ukukhwehlela okuya ngokuya kuba kubi.
• Kunenkinga yokuphefumula lapho uphumule noma lapho wenza imisebenzi elula.
• Ukushisa lapho uchama.
