Ukubuka konke

Kunezinhlobo eziningi zodokotela abathintekayo ekuhloleni nasekwelapheni umdlavuza wamaphaphu. Udokotela wakho oyinhloko angakudlulisela kochwepheshe abahlukahlukene. Nazi ezinye zezazi ongase uhlangane nazo kanye nezindima abazidlalayo ekuhlolweni komdlavuza nokwelashwa komdlavuza wamaphaphu.

Oncologist

I-oncologist izokusiza ukusetha uhlelo lokwelashwa ngemuva kokuxilongwa komdlavuza. Kunezinto ezintathu ezihlukile ezikhethekile ku-oncology:

• Ama-oncologists emisebe asebenzisa imisebe yokwelapha ukwelapha umdlavuza.
• Odokotela bama-oncologists bakhethekile ekusebenziseni izidakamizwa, njenge-chemotherapy, ukwelapha umdlavuza.
• Ama-oncologists wokuhlinza aphatha izingxenye zokuhlinzwa zokwelashwa komdlavuza, njengokukhishwa kwezicubu nezicubu ezithintekile.

Isazi samaphaphu

Isazi se-pulmonologist ngudokotela ogxile ekwelapheni izifo zamaphaphu, njengomdlavuza wamaphaphu, isifo esingapheliyo se-pulmonary disease (COPD), nesifo sofuba. Ngomdlavuza, i-pulmonologist iyasiza ekuxilongweni nasekwelashweni. Baziwa futhi ngokuthi ochwepheshe be-pulmonary.

Udokotela ohlinzayo we-Thoracic

Labo dokotela bagxile ekuhlinzekeni isifuba (thorax). Bahlinza umphimbo, amaphaphu, nenhliziyo. Laba dokotela abahlinzayo bavame ukuhlanganiswa nodokotela abahlinzayo benhliziyo.

Ilungiselela ukuqokwa kwakho

Akunandaba ukuthi ubona muphi udokotela, ukulungiselela okuthile ngaphambi kokuqokwa kwakho kungakusiza ukuthi usisebenzise kahle isikhathi sakho. Yenza uhlu lwazo zonke izimpawu zakho, noma ngabe awazi ukuthi zihlobene ngqo nesimo sakho. Shayela phambili ukubona ukuthi ngabe kukhona yini okudingeka ukwenze ngaphambi kokuqokwa kwakho, njengokuzila ukudla ukuze kuhlolwe igazi. Cela umngani noma ilunga lomndeni ukuthi lihambe nawe ukukusiza ukhumbule yonke imininingwane yokuvakasha kwakho emuva kwalokho.

Kufanele futhi uthathe uhlu olubhaliwe lwemibuzo onayo nawe. Nayi imibuzo embalwa elungiselelwe yiMayo Clinic ukukusiza uqalise:

• Ingabe kunezinhlobo ezahlukene zomdlavuza wamaphaphu? Nginhloboni?
• Yikuphi okunye ukuhlolwa engizokudinga?
• Nginasiphi isigaba somdlavuza?
• Ungangikhombisa ama-X-ray wami bese ungichazela wona?
• Yiziphi izindlela zokwelashwa engizitholayo? Yini imiphumela emibi yokwelashwa?
• Izindleko zokwelashwa zibiza malini?
• Yini ongayitshela umngane noma isihlobo esimweni sami?
• Ungangisiza kanjani ngezimpawu zami?
