Ua lohe anei ʻoe i kahi maʻi i laha ʻia e nā ʻuku? E kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i ka maʻi Lyme!

Aloha! Pehea ʻoe? I kēia lā, e kamaʻilio ana mākou e pili ana i kahi maʻi i kamaʻāina ʻole ʻia e ko mākou poʻe kamaʻāina, akā he mea nui loa ia e ʻike e pili ana i ia mea. He maʻi kēia e laha ʻia e nā ʻuku. Inā paha e hele ana ʻoe i nā ʻāina ʻē, a inā paha he kanaka ʻoe e hoʻolilo nui ana i ka manawa ma nā wahi ululāʻau, he mea nui paha ia e ʻike i kēia. E nānā kākou i ke ʻano o kēia `(Lyme Disease)`, pehea e ulu ai, a he aha nā hōʻailona.

He aha ka maʻi Lyme?

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo ka maʻi Lyme kahi maʻi i hoʻokumu ʻia e kahi ʻano bacteria . Komo kēia bacteria i loko o ko kākou kino ke nahu ʻia kākou e kahi ʻuku i loaʻa i ka maʻi. Ua like ia me kahi maʻi e like me ka dengue fever i hoʻouna ʻia e kahi makika, akā i kēia hihia, ʻo ka mea lawe he ʻuku. Ke hiki mai kēia maʻi, hiki ke loaʻa nā pilikia like ʻole i loko o ko kākou ʻili, puʻuwai, lolo a me nā hono . Akā, mai hopohopo, ʻo ka hapa nui o ka manawa hiki ke ho'ōla loa ʻia me nā antibiotics, ʻoiai inā hoʻomaka mua ʻia ka mālama ʻana i ka maʻi .

Pehea e loaʻa ai i ke kanaka ka maʻi Lyme?

I kēia manawa, e nānā kākou pehea e loaʻa ai kēia maʻi. ʻAʻole nā ​​nahu ʻuʻuku a pau ke kumu o ka maʻi Lyme. Aia kekahi ʻano kūikawā o ka ʻuʻuku no kēia. Ua kapa ʻia lākou ʻo `(Deer Ticks)` a i ʻole `(Black-legged Ticks)`. Lawe kēia mau ʻuʻuku i nā bacteria e hoʻoulu ai i ka maʻi Lyme.

ʻOi aku ka maʻamau o kēia maʻi ma kekahi mau mokuʻāina ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa (e like me Connecticut, New Jersey, a me New York). Ua hōʻike ʻia hoʻi ma kekahi mau ʻāina ma ʻEulopa a me ʻĀsia. No laila he manaʻo maikaʻi e akahele iki inā ʻoe e hele ana i ia ʻāina.

ʻO ka mea nui, ʻaʻole e maʻi nā kānaka a pau i nahu ʻia e kahi ʻuku e like me kēia. ʻO kēia no ka mea he hapa liʻiliʻi wale nō o kēlā mau ʻuku i loaʻa i ka maʻi. Eia kekahi, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka bacteria e komo i loko o ko kākou kino inā noho ka ʻuku i loaʻa i ka maʻi ma ko kākou kino no ka liʻiliʻi he 24 a 48 mau hola (1-2 lā) a omo i ko kākou koko .

ʻO wai ka mea i pilikia nui?

No laila, ʻo wai ka mea i ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ka loaʻa ʻana o kēia maʻi? E nānā kākou.

• ʻO ka poʻe e hoʻolilo i ka manawa nui ma waho, ʻoiai ma ka mauʻu kiʻekiʻe, nā lāʻau liʻiliʻi, a i ʻole nā ​​​​wahi ululāʻau. E noʻonoʻo ʻoe e hele wāwae ana i loko o ka ululāʻau, a i ʻole e hana ana i ka mauʻu kiʻekiʻe i loko o ka māla. Hiki i kēia mau makika ke hoʻopili iā lākou iho i kou kino i nā manawa e like me kēia.
• Hiki i ka poʻe me nā holoholona ke lawe mai i nā makika i ka home. Hiki i kā mākou ʻīlio a me nā pōpoki ke lawe mai i nā makika i ka home me lākou i kekahi manawa ke hoʻi mai lākou mai ka pāʻani ʻana ma waho.
• ʻO ka poʻe e komo ana i nā hana e like me ka māla ʻana, ka hele wāwae ʻana, ka hoʻomoana ʻana, ka lawaiʻa ʻana, a i ʻole ka hahai holoholona ʻana ma nā wahi i loaʻa pinepine ai nā ʻuku. Ke hana mākou i kēia mau mea, ke hōʻike nei mākou iā mākou iho i kahi kaiapuni kahi i loaʻa ai nā ʻuku.

Akā, ʻaʻole kēia manaʻo e maʻi nā mea a pau e hana ana i kēia mau mea. ʻO ia hoʻi, ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o ka pilikia.ʻO ka mea nui loa, ʻo ia ke akahele.

He aha nā hōʻailona o ka maʻi Lyme?

ʻAe, e nānā kākou i nā hōʻailona o ka maʻi Lyme. E hoʻomanaʻo he hiki i kekahi poʻe ke loaʻa ʻole nā ​​hōʻailona, ​​akā hiki nō iā lākou ke loaʻa i ka maʻi. Inā ʻike ʻia nā hōʻailona, ​​​​hiki ke ʻokoʻa mai kēlā kanaka a kēia kanaka. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka manawa, ʻike ʻia kēia mau hōʻailona i ʻekolu mau pae. E nānā mua kākou i ka mea e hana ʻia ma nā pae mua ʻelua.

Nā hōʻailona mua (nā pule mua)

Hiki ke ʻike ʻia nā hōʻailona e like me kēia i loko o nā pule mua o ka maʻi:

• ʻIke ʻia kahi ʻōpala poepoe a ʻōvalo paha ma kahi o ka nahu ʻana o ka makika. ʻO kēia ka hōʻailona maʻamau. I kekahi manawa, he kikowaena maopopo ko ka ʻōpala a he apo ʻulaʻula a puni. Ua like ia me ka ʻōpala maka bipi . ʻO ia ke kumu i kapa ʻia ai he "ʻōpala maka bipi." Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole i loaʻa i nā kānaka a pau kēia ʻōpala. Hiki i kekahi poʻe ke loaʻa wale ka ʻulaʻula. ʻIke pinepine ʻia kēia i loko o 3 mau lā a i hoʻokahi mahina.

E noʻonoʻo, ma hope o kou noho ʻana i loko o ka nahele no kekahi mau lā, ʻike ʻoe i kahi ʻulaʻula, pehu iki ma kou wāwae a lima paha. Inā e nui ana, pono ʻoe e ʻike i ke kauka.

• Kuni. Wela ke kino, a haʻalulu paha ʻoe.
• Manaʻo luhi loa. He manaʻo o ka nāwaliwali loa a ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i kekahi mea.
• ʻEha poʻo. Hiki ke ʻeha nui ke poʻo.
• ʻEha nā ʻiʻo. ʻO ka manaʻo ua paʻa a ʻeha nā ʻiʻo o ke kino.
• ʻEha nā hono. Hoʻomaka nā hono e like me nā kuli a me nā kuʻekuʻe e ʻeha.

Ma muli o ke ʻano like o kēia mau hōʻailona me nā hōʻailona o ke anu maʻamau, hiki i kekahi manawa ke paʻakikī ke ʻike i ka maʻi Lyme. No laila, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka ʻimi koke ʻana i ke kōkua lapaʻau inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kēia mau hōʻailona, ​​inā paha ʻoe e manaʻo nei ua nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku a i ʻole ua noho ʻoe i kahi wahi e loaʻa ai nā ʻuku.

Nā hōʻailona e ʻike ʻia ma hope (inā ʻaʻole i mālama ʻia)

E noʻonoʻo, ʻaʻole i lawe koʻikoʻi ʻia kēlā mau hōʻailona mua, a ʻaʻole paha i ʻike ʻia ka maʻi. A laila hiki i kēia maʻi Lyme ke lilo i mea koʻikoʻi iki aʻe. Ma hope o kekahi mau mahina me ka ʻole o ka mālama ʻia, hiki i nā mea e like me kēia ke hana:

• ʻOi aku ka ʻeha a me ka pehu ʻana o nā hono. He mea maʻamau kēia i nā hono nui e like me nā kuli. Hiki i kēia ʻeha ke hele mai a hele aku.
• Nā hopena ma ka ʻōnaehana nerve. He ʻoi aku ka koʻikoʻi o kēia. No ka mea hiki iā ia ke hana i nā mea e like me ka 'Bell's palsy', ka mae ʻana o nā lālā, ka nalowale o ka hoʻomanaʻo, ka paʻakikī o ka noʻonoʻo ʻana, a pēlā aku. I kekahi manawa hiki iā ia ke alakaʻi i nā kūlana e like me ka 'Meningitis'.
• Nā pilikia o ka puʻuwai.Hiki ke loaʻa nā palpitations o ka puʻuwai, ka ʻeha o ka umauma, a me ka paʻakikī o ka hanu ʻana. Ua kapa ʻia kēia ʻo Lyme carditis.
• Nā pilikia maka. Nā mea e like me ka ʻulaʻula o ka maka, ka ʻeha, a me ka ʻike maka pōwehiwehi.
• ʻO ka maʻi ate (Hepatitis) (he mea kakaikahi kēia, akā hiki ke hana).
• Luhi loa a me ka paupauaho.

Hōʻike kēia mau hōʻailona ua laha ka maʻi ma ke kino a ke hoʻomaka nei e hoʻopilikia i nā ʻano kino like ʻole. ʻO ia ke kumu e ʻōlelo ai mākou he mea nui loa ka ʻike mua ʻana a me ka mālama ʻana.

Pehea lā e hiki ai iā kākou ke makaʻala i kēia? (Nā ʻano pale)

ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka palekana ma mua o ke kaumaha i ka wā e maʻi ai ʻoe. No laila, aia kekahi mau mea hiki iā mākou ke hana e palekana ai mai ka maʻi Lyme. He mea nui loa kēia mau mea inā ʻoe e hele ana i kahi wahi āu e manaʻo ai he mau ʻuku paha:

• E ʻaʻahu i nā lole pale. E ʻaʻahu i nā lole lōʻihi a me nā pālule lima lōʻihi e uhi ana i ka hapa nui o kou kino e like me ka hiki. ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi inā hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokomo i kou mau lole i loko o kou mau kāmaʻa wāwae. ʻO ke komo ʻana i nā lole kala māmā e maʻalahi ai ka ʻike inā ua nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku.
• E hoʻohana i nā mea pale makika. Hiki ke hoʻopili ʻia nā mea pale i loaʻa iā DEET, Picaridin, a i ʻole IR3535 i ka ʻili a me nā lole. Eia nō naʻe, e mālama pono i nā ʻōlelo kuhikuhi i ka wā e hoʻohana ai i nā keiki ʻōpio.
• E noho ma nā ala i koho ʻia. I ka wā e hele ana i nā wahi ululāʻau, e pale i ka mauʻu kiʻekiʻe a me nā lāʻau liʻiliʻi i ka hiki. E noho ma nā ala hele wāwae i koho ʻia.
• E nānā pono i kou kino ma hope o ka hoʻi ʻana mai waho. E makaʻala pono i nā wahi e hiki ai i nā makika ke peʻe maʻalahi, e like me nā ʻāʻī lima, ka ʻūhā, ke poʻo, ma hope o nā pepeiao, a ma hope o nā kuli. Pono e nānā ʻia nā keiki ʻōpio e kahi pākeke.
• E nānā pinepine i kāu mau holoholona. E nānā i kāu mau ʻīlio a me nā pōpoki no nā makika ke hoʻi mai lākou mai waho. E hoʻohana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau i kuhikuhi ʻia iā lākou e pale aku iā lākou mai nā makika.
• E mālama i kou pā hale maʻemaʻe. E mālama i ka ʻokiʻoki ʻana i ka mauʻu a me nā lāʻau liʻiliʻi a puni kou hale. E hōʻemi kēia i ka nui o nā wahi e hiki ai i nā ʻuku ke noho.

E hoʻomanaʻo, inā ʻike ʻoe i kahi ʻuku e pili ana i kou kino, pono ʻoe e wehe koke a pololei hoʻi. Mai huki wale iā ia me kou mau lima. E hoʻohana i kahi tweezers e hopu i ke poʻo o ka ʻuku kokoke i ka ʻili a huki mālie i luna. Mai wili a kuʻi paha iā ia.

He aha kāu e hana ai inā manaʻo ʻoe ua loaʻa iā ʻoe ka maʻi Lyme?

ʻAe, i kēia manawa ke manaʻo nei ʻoe he mau hōʻailona kou o ka maʻi Lyme. A i ʻole ua ʻike paha ʻoe ua nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku, a i kēia manawa ua makaʻu iki ʻoe. ʻO ka mea maikaʻi loa e hana ai i ka manawa e like me kēia, ʻaʻole ia e hopohopo, akā e ʻike koke i ke kauka.

E nīnau ke kauka iā ʻoe e pili ana i kou mau hōʻailona a inā paha ua noho ʻoe ma nā wahi i loaʻa ai nā makika. Inā pono, hiki ke hana ʻia kahi hoʻāʻo koko. Eia nō naʻe, e hoʻomanaʻo ʻaʻole paha e ʻike ʻia ka maʻi e nā hoʻāʻo koko i hana ʻia i nā pule mua o ka maʻi. No laila, e hoʻoholo pinepine ke kauka ma muli o kāu mau hōʻailona a me ka ʻike āu e hāʻawi ai.

Inā ua hōʻoia ʻia ka maʻi Lyme, e kuhikuhi kāu kauka i nā lāʻau antibiotic. Pono ʻoe e lawe i kēia mau lāʻau no 2 a 4 mau pule. Inā hoʻomaka mua ʻoe i ka mālama ʻana, hiki iā ʻoe ke ho'ōla piha. ʻO ia ke kumu a mākou e ʻōlelo nei, inā he kānalua kāu, e ʻike koke i ke kauka.

ʻO ka mea hope loa, e hoʻomanaʻo i kēia (Leka Lawe-Home)

No laila, ke lana nei koʻu manaʻo ua ʻoi aku kou maopopo i ka maʻi Lyme a mākou i kamaʻilio ai i kēia lā. He maʻi kēia e lawe ʻia e ka ʻuku e pono ai ke mālama.

ʻO nā mea nui e hoʻomanaʻo ai:

• Hoʻokumu ʻia ka maʻi Lyme e ka nahu ʻana o kahi ʻuku i loaʻa i ka maʻi .
• ʻO nā hōʻailona mua e pili ana i ka ʻulaʻula o ka ʻili (ʻoi aku ka ʻulaʻula o ka maka bipi), ke kuni, ka luhi, ka ʻeha poʻo, a me ka ʻeha o nā ʻiʻo a me nā hono .
• He mea nui loa ia e noho palekana inā ʻoe e hele ana i nā wahi ululāʻau a mauʻu paha kahi e loaʻa ai nā ʻuku.
• Inā ʻike ʻia ka maʻi i ka wā mua a mālama ʻia me nā antibiotics, hiki ke ho'ōla loa ʻia.
• Inā he kānalua kou, e ʻimi koke i ke aʻo lapaʻau.

ʻOiai ʻaʻole maʻamau kēia maʻi ma ko kākou ʻāina, ʻaʻole ia he mea ʻeha ke ʻike. He mea pono loa kēia ʻike iā ʻoe, ʻoiai inā ʻoe e huakaʻi ana i nā ʻāina ʻē a i ʻole e hana ana i loko o ka ululāʻau. E noho palekana kākou a pau!

ʻO ka maʻi Lyme, nā ʻuku, nā maʻi i lawe ʻia e ka ʻuku, nā hōʻailona, ​​​​​​ka mālama ʻana, ka pale ʻana
