Ukwelashwa ngemisebe - ukunakekelwa kwesikhumba

Uma unemishanguzo yokwelashwa ngemisebe, ungaba nezinguquko ezithile esikhunjeni sakho endaweni elashwa. Isikhumba sakho singashintsha sibe bomvu, sihlube, noma silume. Kufanele uphathe isikhumba sakho ngokunakekela ngenkathi uthola ukwelashwa ngemisebe.

Ukwelashwa kwemisebe yangaphandle isebenzisa ama-x-ray aphakeme noma izinhlayiya ukubulala amangqamuzana omdlavuza. Imisebe noma izinhlayiya zihloselwe ngqo isimila esivela ngaphandle komzimba. Ukwelashwa ngemisebe kulimaza noma kubulale amaseli aphilile. Ngesikhathi sokwelashwa, amangqamuzana esikhumba awanaso isikhathi esanele sokubuyela emuva phakathi kwamaseshini emisebe. Lokhu kubangela imiphumela emibi.

Imiphumela emibi incike kumthamo wemisebe, ukuthi uthola ukwelashwa kangaki, nengxenye yomzimba wakho imisebe igxile kuyo, njenge:

• Isisu
• Ubuchopho
• Isifuba
• Isifuba
• Umlomo nentamo
• IPelvis (phakathi kwezinqulu)
• Indlala yesinye
• Isikhumba

Emasontweni amabili noma ngaphezulu ngemuva kokuqala ukwelashwa ngemisebe, ungabona izinguquko zesikhumba ezinjengalezi:

• Isikhumba esibomvu noma "selishisiwe ilanga"
• Isikhumba esimnyama
• Ukulunywa
• Amaqhubu, ukuqubuka
• Ukuxebuka
• Ukulahleka kwezinwele endaweni elashwa
• Ukuncipha noma ukuqina kwesikhumba
• Ukuba buhlungu noma ukuvuvukala kwendawo
• Ukuzwela noma ukuba ndikindiki
• Izilonda zesikhumba

Eziningi zalezi zimpawu zizophela ngemuva kokuthi ukwelashwa kwakho kumile. Kodwa-ke, isikhumba sakho singahlala simnyama, somile futhi sizwele kakhulu elangeni. Lapho izinwele zakho zikhula, zingahluka kunakuqala.

Uma uthola ukwelashwa ngemisebe, umhlinzeki wezokunakekelwa kwezempilo udweba amamaki amancane unomphela esikhunjeni sakho. Lokhu kukhombisa ukuthi kufanele kuhloswe kuphi ngemisebe.

Nakekela isikhumba endaweni yokwelashwa.

• Geza kamnandi ngensipho emnene namanzi asivivi kuphela. Ungakhubi. Pat isikhumba sakho somile.
• Ungasebenzisi ama-lotion, amafutha okugcoba, izimonyo, noma izimpushana ezinamakha noma imikhiqizo. Bangacasula isikhumba noma baphazamise ukwelashwa. Buza umhlinzeki wakho ukuthi yimiphi imikhiqizo ongayisebenzisa nokuthi nini.
• Uma uvame ukushefa indawo yokwelashwa, sebenzisa kuphela insingo kagesi. Ungasebenzisi imikhiqizo yokushefa.
• Ungasikliki noma uhlikihle isikhumba sakho.
• Gqoka izindwangu ezikhululekile, ezithambile eduze kwesikhumba sakho, njengokotini. Gwema izingubo ezikubambayo kanye nezindwangu ezimahhadla njengoboya.
• Ungasebenzisi amabhandeshi noma itheyiphu yokunamathela endaweni.
• Uma welashelwa umdlavuza webele, ungagqoki ubhodisi, noma ugqoke ubhodisi ongafanelanga ongenayo i-underwire. Buza umhlinzeki wakho mayelana nokugqoka isifuba sakho sesifuba, uma unaso.
• Ungasebenzisi amapayipi okushisa noma amaphakethe abandayo esikhumbeni.
• Buza umhlinzeki wakho ukuthi kulungile yini ukubhukuda emachibini, emanzini anosawoti, emachibini, noma emachibini.

Gcina indawo yokwelashwa ingangeni elangeni ngqo ngenkathi welashwa.

• Gqoka izingubo ezikuvikela elangeni, njengesigqoko esinomphetho obanzi, ihembe elinemikhono emide namabhulukwe amade.
• Sebenzisa isivikelo selanga.

Indawo elashwa iyozwela kakhulu elangeni. Futhi uzoba sengozini yomdlavuza wesikhumba kuleyo ndawo. Tshela umhlinzeki wakho uma unezinguquko zesikhumba nanoma yikuphi ukuphuka noma ukuvuleka esikhunjeni sakho.
