Ukulahleka kokuzwa okuhlobene nobudala

Ukulahleka kokuzwa okuhlobene nobudala, noma i-presbycusis, ukulahleka kancane kokuzwa okwenzeka njengoba abantu bekhula.

Amaseli wezinwele amancane ngaphakathi kwendlebe yakho yangaphakathi akusiza uzwe. Bathatha amaza omsindo bawashintshe abe amasiginali ezinzwa ubuchopho obutolika njengomsindo. Ukulahleka kokuzwa kwenzeka lapho amangqamuzana ezinwele ezincane elimele noma efa. Amaseli wezinwele AWAZE abuye, ngakho-ke ukulahleka kwezindlebe okuningi okubangelwa ukulimala kwamangqamuzana ezinwele kuhlala kungunaphakade.

Asikho isizathu esisodwa esaziwayo sokulahleka kokuzwa okuhlobene nobudala. Ngokuvamile, kubangelwa izinguquko endlebeni yangaphakathi ezenzeka lapho ukhula. Izakhi zakho zofuzo nomsindo omkhulu (kusuka kumakhonsathi e-rock noma kuma-headphone omculo) kungadlala indima enkulu.

Izici ezilandelayo zifaka isandla ekulahlekelweni kokuzwa okuhlobene nobudala:

• Umlando womndeni (ukulahleka kokuzwa okuhlobene nobudala kuvame ukusebenza emindenini)
• Ukuvezwa okuphindaphindiwe emisindweni ephezulu
• Ukubhema (ababhemayo basemathubeni amaningi okulahlekelwa ukuzwa okunjalo kunabangabhemi)
• Izimo ezithile zezokwelapha, njengesifo sikashukela
• Imithi ethile, njengemithi yokwelashwa ngamakhemikhali yomdlavuza

Ukulahlekelwa ukuzwa kuvame ukuvela kancane ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.

Izimpawu zifaka:

• Kunzima ukuzwa abantu abaseduze kwakho
• Imvamisa ucela abantu ukuthi baziphinde
• Ukukhungatheka ngokungakwazi ukuzwa
• Imisindo ethile ibonakala ibanga umsindo ngokweqile
• Izinkinga zokuzwa ezindaweni ezinomsindo
• Izinkinga zokuhlukanisa imisindo ethile, njenge "s" noma "th"
• Ubunzima obengeziwe bokuqonda abantu abanamazwi aphezulu
• Kukhala ezindlebeni

Khuluma nomhlinzeki wakho wezokunakekelwa kwezempilo uma unezinye zalezi zimpawu. Izimpawu ze-presbycusis zingafana nezimpawu zezinye izinkinga zezokwelapha.

Umhlinzeki wakho uzokwenza ukuhlolwa okuphelele ngokomzimba. Lokhu kusiza ukuthola ukuthi ngabe inkinga yezokwelapha ibanga ukulahleka kwakho kokuzwa. Umhlinzeki wakho uzosebenzisa insimbi ebizwa nge-otoscope ukubheka ezindlebeni zakho. Kwesinye isikhathi, i-earwax ingavimba imisele yezindlebe futhi idale ukulahleka kokuzwa.

Ungathunyelwa kudokotela wendlebe, impumulo, nomphimbo kanye nodokotela wezindlebe (i-audiologist). Ukuhlolwa kokuzwa kungasiza ekunqumeni ukulahleka kokuzwa okungakanani.

Alikho ikhambi lokulahlekelwa ukuzwa okuhlobene nobudala. Ukwelashwa kugxile ekwenzeni ngcono umsebenzi wakho wansuku zonke. Okulandelayo kungasiza:

• Izinsiza-kuzwa
• Izikhulisi zefoni nezinye izinto ezisizayo
• Ulimi lwezandla (lwalabo abalahlekelwe kakhulu ukuzwa)
• Ukufundwa kwenkulumo (ukufundwa kwezindebe nokusebenzisa izikhombisi ezibonakalayo ukusiza ukuxhumana)
• Ukufakwa kwe-cochlear kunganconywa kubantu abanokulahlekelwa okukhulu kokuzwa. Kuhlinzwa ukwenziwa ukubeka okufakelwayo. Ukufakelwa kuvumela umuntu ukuthi aphinde abone imisindo futhi ngokuzijwayeza angavumela umuntu ukuthi aqonde inkulumo, kepha akubuyisi ukuzwa okujwayelekile.

Ukulahleka kokuzwa okuhlobene nobudala kuvame ukuba kubi kakhulu kancane. Ukulahleka kokuzwa akukwazi ukuhlehliswa futhi kungaholela ekubeni isithulu.

Ukuzwa ukulahlekelwa kungadala ukuthi ugweme ukuhamba ekhaya. Funa usizo kumhlinzeki wakho kanye nomndeni nabangane ukuze ugweme ukuba wedwa. Ukulahlekelwa kokuzwa kungalawulwa ukuze uqhubeke nokuphila impilo ephelele futhi esebenzayo.

Ukulahlekelwa ukuzwa kungaholela kuzo zombili izinkinga zomzimba (hhayi ukuzwa i-alamu yomlilo) nezinkinga ezingokwengqondo (ukuzihlukanisa nabantu).

Ukulahleka kokuzwa kungaholela ekubeni isithulu.

Ukulahlekelwa kokuzwa kufanele kuhlolwe ngokushesha okukhulu. Lokhu kusiza ukukhipha izimbangela ezifana ne-wax eningi endlebeni noma imiphumela emibi yemithi. Umhlinzeki wakho kufanele akwenzele ukuhlolwa kokuzwa.

Thinta umhlinzeki wakho khona manjalo uma kwenzeka ushintsho olungazelelwe ekuzweni noma ekulahlekelweni kokuzwa kwakho ngezinye izimpawu, ezinjengalezi:

• Ubuhlungu bekhanda
• Umbono uyashintsha
• Isiyezi

Ukulahlekelwa ukuzwa - okuhlobene neminyaka; I-Presbycusis

• I-anatomy yendlebe
