He aha ka meningitis? E aʻo kākou e pili ana i kēia maʻi weliweli ma nā ʻōlelo maʻalahi!

Ua lohe paha ʻoe i kahi maʻi i kapa ʻia ʻo meningitis, ʻeā? Malia paha ua loaʻa i kahi hoaaloha a ʻohana paha o ʻoe. A i ʻole ua lohe paha ʻoe ma kahi nūpepa a ma ke TV paha. He huaʻōlelo weliweli loa kēia. Eia naʻe, inā ua hoʻomaopopo pono ʻia mākou e pili ana i kēia maʻi, hiki iā mākou ke alo iā ia me ka makaʻu ʻole. No laila i kēia lā, e kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i kēia maʻi i kapa ʻia ʻo meningitis ma ke ʻano maʻalahi hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaopopo, ʻae?

He aha ka meningitis? I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi...

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo ka meningitis kahi mumū o nā membrane pale e hoʻopuni ana i ko mākou lolo a me ke kaula spinal . Kāhea mākou i kēia mau membrane pale he meninges . E noʻonoʻo e like me ke kau ʻana i kahi uhi uluna ma kou uluna, aia kēia mau meninges e pale i ko mākou lolo a me ke kaula spinal. No laila , ke pehu kēia mau meninges no kekahi kumu, ʻo ia hoʻi, ke pehu lākou , ʻo ia ka mea a mākou e kapa nei he meningitis.

Hiki i kēia pehu ke kau i ke kaomi ma ka lolo a me ke kaula spinal, ʻo ia ke kumu he maʻi koʻikoʻi kēia.

He aha nā kumu nui o ka meningitis?

Hoʻokumu pinepine ʻia ka meningitis e ka ʻai ʻana i nā ʻano germs like ʻole . E nānā kākou i nā kumu nui.

1. ʻO ka meningitis i hoʻokumu ʻia e nā virus (Viral Meningitis)

ʻO kēia ke ʻano maʻamau o ka meningitis. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ʻaʻole ia he mea weliweli e like me nā ʻano ʻē aʻe. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka manawa, e hoʻomaʻemaʻe ia iā ia iho i loko o kekahi mau lā a i hoʻokahi a ʻelua paha pule.

Hiki ke hana ʻia kēia kūlana e nā ʻano virus like ʻole. No ka laʻana, ʻo nā virus e hoʻoulu ai i nā maʻi e like me ka mumps a me ka measles, nā enteroviruses, a me nā virus herpes hiki ke hoʻoulu i ka meningitis viral.

2. ʻO ka maʻi meningitis bacteria

ʻO kēia ke ʻano meningitis weliweli loa a hoʻoweliweli i ke ola . Inā hana ʻia kēia , pono ʻoe e lawe koke ʻia i ka haukapila a hoʻomaka i ka mālama ʻana . A i ʻole, hiki ke loaʻa nā pilikia koʻikoʻi e like me ka hōʻino ʻana o ka lolo, ka nalowale o ka lohe, a me ka make.

ʻO kekahi mau ʻano bacteria ke kumu o kēia. No ka laʻana, ʻo *Streptococcus pneumoniae*, *Neisseria meningitidis* (ʻo ke ʻano e hoʻoulu ai i ka meningococcal meningitis he mea weliweli loa ia), a me *Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib)* nā bacteria nui. Loaʻa nā lāʻau pale e kūʻē i kekahi o kēia mau bacteria, no laila he mea nui loa ka lāʻau pale.
