Yini ama-shingles?

Uma ukhulelwe, ungakhathazeka ngokuba phakathi kwabantu abagulayo noma ngokuthuthukisa isimo sempilo esingahle sithinte wena noma ingane yakho. Isifo esisodwa ongahle ukhathazeke ngaso ngama-shingles.

Ukube ubuneqhubu lapho usemncane, i-VZV ihlala ingasebenzi ohlelweni lwakho. Igciwane lingaphinda lisebenze futhi lidale ama-shingles. Abantu abaqondi ngokugcwele ukuthi kungani lokhu kwenzeka.

Ingozi yokuvezwa

Awukwazi ukubamba ama-shingles komunye umuntu. Kodwa-ke, ungabamba ingxibongo noma isiphi isikhathi uma ungakaze ube nayo phambilini. I-chickenpox iyathathelana. Kungasakazeka ngisho nalapho umuntu onesihenqo sezinkukhu ekhwehlela.

Umuntu onama-shingles angadlulisela igciwane komunye umuntu kuphela uma lowo muntu ongenagciwane ethintana ngqo nokuqubuka okungakapholi. Ngenkathi ungeke ubambe ama-shingles kusuka ekuvezweni kwabantu abanjalo, ungavezwa ku-VZV futhi uthuthukise umkhuhlane wenkukhu. AmaShingles angavela nangelinye ilanga ukuthi angavela, kepha kuphela ngemuva kokuthi inkukhu isiphumile.

Ukukhathazeka ngokukhulelwa

Uma ukhulelwe futhi ubusuvele unenkukhu, wena nengane yakho niphephile ekuchayekeni kunoma ngubani onenkukhu noma uswazi.

Bangancoma ukuhlolwa kwegazi ukubasiza ukuthi banqume ukuthi unawo yini amasosha omzimba egciwane lengxibongo. Uma ama-antibody akhona, lokho kusho ukuthi ubune-chickenpox futhi mhlawumbe awuyikhumbuli, noma ugonyelwe yona. Uma kunjalo, wena nengane yakho akufanele nibe sengozini yalesi sifo.

Uma bengawatholi ama-antibody egciwane le-chickenpox, ungathola umjovo we-immunoglobulin. Lesi sibhamu sizoqukatha amasosha omzimba wenkukhu. Ukuthola lo mjovo kungasho ukuthi ugwema ukuthola ingxibongo futhi kungenzeka ube nama-shingles ngokuzayo, noma ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi unecala elibi kakhulu lenkukhu. Kufanele uthole umjovo emahoreni angama-96 wokuchayeka kwakho ukuze usebenze ngempumelelo ngangokunokwenzeka.

Kufanele utshele udokotela wakho ukuthi ukhulelwe ngaphambi kokuthola umjovo we-immunoglobulin noma enye into. Noma ngabe kusekuqaleni kokukhulelwa kwakho noma kusondele usuku lwakho lokubeletha, kufanele uqaphele ngayo yonke imithi, izithasiselo, kanye nokudla okungena emzimbeni wakho.]

Yiziphi izindlela zokwelapha ezitholakalayo zamashingles?

Udokotela wakho angakunikeza umuthi olwa namagciwane uma ekuxilonga ngama-shingles. Ezinye izibonelo zifaka i-acyclovir (i-Zovirax), i-valacyclovir (i-Valtrex), ne-famciclovir (i-Famvir).

Njengayo yonke imithi ngesikhathi ukhulelwe, kuzodingeka uhlole udokotela wakho ukuze uqiniseke ukuthi umuthi wamagciwane uphephile enganeni yakho. Kunemithi eminingi elwa namagciwane ephephile kuwe nasenganeni yakho.

Uma uthuthukisa i-chickenpox ngesikhathi sokukhulelwa kwakho, ungakwazi futhi ukuthatha imishanguzo yokulwa namagciwane.

Kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuthi imiphumela emihle kakhulu yenzeka lapho ukwelashwa kuqala ngokushesha ngemuva kokuvela kokuqubuka kokuqala. Kufanele ubone udokotela wakho kungakapheli amahora angama-24 wesifo kuqala ukuvela.

Umbono

Izingqinamba zokuthi uqhamuka neziqubu ngenkathi ukhulelwe ziphansi. Noma ngabe uyakhula, ama-shingles cishe ngeke athinte ingane yakho. Kungenza ukukhulelwa kwakho kube nzima kuwe ngenxa yobuhlungu nokungakhululeki okuhilelekile.

Uma uhlela ukukhulelwa futhi ungakaze ube nenkukhu, ungafuna ukukhuluma nodokotela wakho mayelana nokuthola umuthi wokugoma okungenani izinyanga ezintathu ngaphambi kokuzama ukukhulelwa. Uma ukhathazekile ngokuthuthukisa ama-shingles ngoba ubusuvele unenkukhu, khuluma nodokotela wakho mayelana nokuthola umuthi wokugomela i-shingles ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ngaphambi kokukhulelwa.

Ungakuvimbela kanjani ukushayana?

Intuthuko ocwaningweni lwezokwelapha inciphisa isibalo sabantu ababa nengxibongo nezinkukhu emhlabeni jikelele. Lokhu ikakhulukazi kungenxa yokugonywa.

Ukugonywa kwenkukhu

Umuthi wokugomela inkukhu utholakale ukuze usetshenziswe kabanzi ngo-1995. Kusukela lapho, inani lamacala e-chickenpox emhlabeni wonke lehle kakhulu.

Odokotela bavame ukunikeza umuthi wokugomela inkukhu lapho ingane ineminyaka engu-1 kuya kwengu-2 ubudala. Banikeza i-booster shot lapho ingane ineminyaka engu-4 kuye kwengu-6 ubudala. Imithi yokugoma icishe isebenze uma uthola umuthi wokugoma wokuqala kanye ne-booster. Usenethuba elincane lokuthuthukisa ingxibongo ngisho nokuthola umuthi wokugoma.

Ukugonyelwa amashoba

Ukuphathwa Kwezokudla Nezidakamizwa e-U.S. Kwagunyaza umuthi wokugomela ama-shingles ngo-2006. Kungumuthi wokugoma wabantu abadala wokulwa ne-VZV. I-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention incoma ukugonywa kwe-shingles kuwo wonke umuntu oneminyaka engama-60 nangaphezulu.

Ukugoma nokukhulelwa

Kufanele uthole umuthi wokugomela inkukhu ngaphambi kokuba ukhulelwe uma ungazange uthole umjovo wenkukhu noma uthole umuthi wokugomela inkukhu. Uma usukhulelwe, izindlela ezingcono kakhulu zokuvimbela ukuhlala kude nabantu abanezinhlobo ezisebenzayo zenkukhu noma ama-shingles.
