Ulimi tie

Ulimi lolimi kulapho phansi kolimi kunanyathiselwe phansi komlomo.

Lokhu kungenza kube nzima ukuthi ichopho lolimi lihambe ngokukhululeka.

Ulimi luxhunywe ngezansi komlomo yibhande lezicubu elibizwa ngokuthi yi-lingual frenulum. Kubantu abanolimi oluboshiwe, leli bhande lifushane ngokweqile futhi liwugqinsi. Imbangela ngqo yolimi tie ayaziwa. Izakhi zofuzo zakho zingadlala indima ethile. Inkinga ivame ukusebenza kweminye imindeni.

Kusana olusanda kuzalwa noma usana, izimpawu zokuqina kolimi ziyefana nezimpawu enganeni enezinkinga zokuncelisa. Izimpawu zingafaka:

• Ukwenza okucasulayo noma okuxakile, noma ngabe usudlile.
• Kunzima ukudala noma ukugcina ukuncela engonweni. Usana lungakhathala emzuzwini owodwa noma emibili, noma lulele ngaphambi kokudla ngokwanele.
• Ukuzuza okubi noma ukunciphisa umzimba.
• Izinkinga zokubambelela kwingono. Usana lungavele luhlafune ingono esikhundleni salokho.
• Kungaba nobunzima bokukhuluma nokuphimisela ezinganeni ezindadlana.

Umama oncelisayo angaba nezinkinga ngobuhlungu besifuba, amapayipi obisi axhunyiwe, noma amabele abuhlungu, futhi angazizwa ekhungathekile.

Iningi lochwepheshe alikukhuthazi ukuthi abahlinzeki bezempilo bahlole izinsana ezisanda kuzalwa ukuthi ziboshwe yini ulimi ngaphandle uma kunezinkinga zokuncelisa.

Abahlinzeki abaningi babheka kuphela ukubopha ulimi lapho:

• Umama nengane babe nezinkinga zokuqala ukuncelisa.
• Umama uthole ukwesekwa okungenani izinsuku ezimbili kuya kwezi-3 kochwepheshe bencelisa (ukuncelisa).

Izinkinga eziningi zokubeletha zingaphathwa kalula. Umuntu ogxile ekunceliseni ibele (umeluleki we-lactation) angasiza ngezinkinga zokuncelisa.

Ukuhlinzwa kolimi uthayi, okubizwa nge-frenulotomy, akuvamile ukuthi kudingeke. Ukuhlinzwa kufaka ukusika nokukhulula i-frenulum eboshiwe ngaphansi kolimi. Kuvame ukwenziwa ehhovisi lomhlinzeki. Ukutheleleka noma ukuphuma kwegazi ngemuva kwalokho kungenzeka, kepha akuvamile.

Ukuhlinzwa kwamacala abucayi kwenziwa egunjini lokuhlinzwa esibhedlela. Inqubo yokuhlinza ebizwa ngokuthi ukuvalwa kwe-z-plasty ingadingeka ukuze kuvinjelwe izicubu ezibomvu ekwakhekeni.

Ezimweni ezingavamile, ukubopha ulimi kuye kwaxhunyaniswa nezinkinga zokukhula kwamazinyo, ukugwinya, noma ukukhuluma.
