Pono anei kākou e makaʻala i nā makika? E aʻo kākou e pili ana i nā nahu makika!

Ua ʻike paha ʻoe i kahi holoholona liʻiliʻi e pipili ana i kou kino i ka wā e hele ana i loko o ka nahele a i ʻole e pāʻani ana ma luna o ka mauʻu ma ka pā hale. He mau ʻuku kēia. E noʻonoʻo, me kou ʻike ʻole, hiki i kēia holoholona liʻiliʻi ke pipili i kou kino a omo i kou koko. He mea hoʻonāukiuki loa kēia mau holoholona liʻiliʻi i kapa ʻia he ʻuku, no ka mea hiki iā lākou ke hoʻolaha i nā maʻi like ʻole. No laila i kēia lā, e kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i kēia mau nahu ʻuku.

He aha ka nahu ʻana o ka makika?

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, he mau parasite nā makika. ʻO ia hoʻi, ʻai lākou i ke koko o nā holoholona koko mehana (me nā kānaka) e ola ai. Ke hana lākou i kēia, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻoili i nā bacteria, nā virus, a me nā protozoans, ʻo ia hoʻi nā meaola cell hoʻokahi e noho ana ma ke kino o ka makika. Penei ke ʻano o ka laha ʻana o nā maʻi. He mea weliweli loa kekahi mau maʻi a hiki ke hoʻoweliweli i ke ola.

Eia kekahi mau maʻi e hiki ke laha ma o nā ʻuku:

• Maʻi Lyme
• ʻO ke kūpilikiʻi o ka Tularemia
• ʻEhrlichiosis
• kuni kiko o ka mauna pōhaku
• ʻAnaplasmosis
• ʻO Babesiosis

Aia kekahi mau maʻi ʻē aʻe e like me kēia:

• Ka maʻi kuni ʻo Colorado
• ʻO ka maʻi Powassan
• ʻO ka maʻi ʻili e pili ana i ka ʻupena Hema (STARI)
• ʻO ka maʻi lolo - kahi kūlana o ka maʻi lolo i hoʻokumu ʻia e nā ʻuala
• kuni kiko - he kuni e hoʻoulu ai i nā kiko ma ke kino
• Kuni hou - kuni hou
• ʻO ka maʻi Heartland

He liʻiliʻi loa nā ʻuku. He paʻakikī ke ʻike a hiki i ka wā e hoʻopili ʻia ai lākou i ke kino no kekahi manawa. Akā i ka wā e ulu ai lākou a ʻai i ka ʻai koko, e maʻalahi ka ʻike ʻana.

Aia kekahi mau ʻano ʻokoʻa o nā ʻuku?

ʻAe, he mau parasite nā makika. Pili lākou i nā holoholona e like me nā ʻuku moe a me nā nananana, no ka mea, he mau arthropoda lākou a pau. ʻO ia hoʻi, he ʻewalu ko lākou mau wāwae. Nui nā ʻano makika. Eia kekahi mau laʻana:

• ʻUku wāwae ʻeleʻele - Kāhea ʻia hoʻi ʻo ia he ʻuku dia.
• Tiki Hōkū Lone
• ʻUku ʻīlio - ʻElua ʻano: ka ʻuku ʻīlio ʻAmelika a me ka ʻuku ʻīlio ʻeleʻele.

ʻOkoʻa ka nui a me ke kala o kēia mau makika. He nui kekahi, he ʻeleʻele a ʻulaʻula paha kekahi. Aneane ʻeleʻele kekahi. He mau māka māmā ko kekahi ma ko lākou kua.

He aha ka mea e hana ʻia i ke kino ke nahu ka ʻuku? He aha nā hōʻailona?

E noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ia mea, i kekahi manawa ʻaʻole paha ʻoe e manaʻo i kahi nahu ʻuʻuku. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka manawa, ʻaʻohe ʻeha a ʻānai paha i ka wā mua. Akā i kekahi manawa hiki iā ʻoe ke manaʻo. ʻAʻole nā ​​​​nahu ʻuʻuku a pau ke kumu o ka maʻi. I kekahi manawa hiki iā ʻoe ke wehe i ka ʻuʻuku ma mua o ke komo ʻana o nā germs i kou kino.

Aia paha he ʻulaʻula, he ʻulaʻula, a he puʻupuʻu liʻiliʻi paha ma kahi o ka nahu ʻana o ka makika. Eia nō naʻe, ʻike ʻia nā hōʻailona ʻē aʻe ke hoʻomaka ka maʻi e holomua.

ʻO kēia nā hōʻailona maʻamau o nā maʻi he nui i lawe ʻia e ka ʻuku:

• kuni
• Anuanu
• ʻEha ʻiʻo
• Nā ʻeha poʻo
• Luhi
• Ka ʻā ʻana a i ʻole ke kuni ʻana (akā, ʻaʻole e hiki mai kēia i ka manawa hoʻokahi)
• ʻŌhūhū ʻili - ua like ia me ka ʻōhūhū

Hiki i kekahi mau ʻōhū ke hōʻike i ke ʻano o ka maʻi. No ka laʻana, ʻike ʻia ke kuni ʻulaʻula liʻiliʻi a poni paha ma ke ʻano he mau kiko ʻulaʻula liʻiliʻi a poni paha (petechiae).

ʻO kahi hōʻailona hiʻona o ka maʻi Lyme he ʻōhū e hoʻonui mālie a like me ka "bull's-eye." Ua kapa ʻia kēia he erythema migrans. Loaʻa pū kekahi ʻōhū like ma Southern Tick-Associated Rash Illness (STARI). Ua kapa ʻia hoʻi ʻo ia ʻo Lone Star Tick Rash.

He mau kiko ʻulaʻula liʻiliʻi a ʻeleʻele paha kekahi o nā ʻōhū, a he paʻakikī paha ke ʻike ʻia.

Pehea ke ʻano o ka nahu ʻana o ka makika? Pehea kona manaʻo?

E like me ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia ma mua, ʻaʻole paha ʻoe e loaʻa i kahi makika a hiki i ka wā e pipili ai a ulu. ʻO ia ke kumu he mea nui e nānā pono i kou kino ke noho ʻoe ma nā wahi i loaʻa ai nā makika.

Ma hea ke kino e nahu nui ai nā ʻuku?

Hiki i nā ʻuku ke hoʻopili iā lākou iho ma nā wahi āpau o ke kino. Akā hele lākou i ko lākou mau wahi punahele. ʻO ia hoʻi, i nā wahi i palupalu ai ka ʻili a maikaʻi ke kahe koko . I loko o ke kanaka, eia nā wahi:

• Poʻo a me ka ʻāʻī
• Ma waena o nā wāwae
• Nā wāwae, ʻoi aku hoʻi ma hope o nā kuli
• I loko o ke ana
• I loko a puni paha o ka pepeiao
• Ma lalo o ka ʻāʻī
• A puni ka pūhaka

Pehea ʻoe e ʻike ai inā ua nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku?

Makemake nā ʻuku i nā ululāʻau, nā wahi me nā kumulāʻau he nui a me ka mauʻu lōʻihi. Inā ʻoe e hele ana ma kēia mau wahi, pono ʻoe e makaʻala i nā ʻuku. Makemake pū lākou i nā lau. Inā ʻoe e hele ana ma nā alahele o ka ululāʻau, e hoʻāʻo e noho mamao mai nā lau hāʻule a me nā lāʻau liʻiliʻi a hele ma waenakonu o ke ala.

I kekahi manawa hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa a mālama i ka makika nāna i nahu iā ʻoe. ʻAʻole nahu pinepine nā makika e like me nā pepeke ʻē aʻe. Hoʻokahi wale nō ka manawa e nahu ai lākou, a laila eli i loko o ka ʻili. Inā hana ʻia kēia, inā hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa a wehe i ka makika, hiki iā ʻoe a i ʻole kāu kauka ke ʻike i ke ʻano o ka makika. He mea nui e ʻike inā he makika ia e lawe ana i ka maʻi.

E nīnau aku kāu kauka iā ʻoe e pili ana i kou mōʻaukala olakino, inā paha ʻoe i nā wahi i loaʻa ai nā ʻuku, a i kekahi manawa e hana pū lākou i nā hoʻāʻo koko.

He aha kāu e hana ai inā e nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku?

Inā ua nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku, ʻo ke ala maikaʻi loa e wehe ai iā ia, ʻo ia ke hahai i kēia mau hana:

• E lawe i nā tweezers ʻoi a paʻa pono i ke poʻo o ka makika, ma ka pae o kou ʻili.
• A laila e huki mālie, akā paʻa, a hiki i ka wehe ʻia ʻana o ka makika mai ka ʻili.
• Mai kuʻi i ke kino o ka makika. Mai hoʻopā i ka makika me kou mau lima ʻōlohelohe. Inā hana ʻoe pēlā, hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa i ka bacteria ma ke kino o ka makika.
• E holoi pono i ka wahi i nahu ʻia me ke kopa.

Mea nui: Mai hoʻohana i ka kerosene, ka petroleum jelly (e like me Vaseline®), a i ʻole kahi ʻūpā cigarette i ʻā ʻia e wehe i kahi makika. Eia kekahi, mai ʻomi i ke kino o ka makika me kou mau manamana lima a i ʻole nā ​​​​tweezers.

Āhea wau e ʻike ai i ke kauka inā manaʻo wau ua nahu ʻia au e kahi ʻuku?

Pono ʻoe e ʻike i ke kauka i kēia mau hihia:

• Manaʻo ʻoe ua paʻa ka ʻuku ma luna ou no nā hola, malia paha he lā.
• Inā ʻike ʻia kahi ʻulaʻula (ʻulaʻula ʻili) ma kahi o ka nahu ʻana o ka makika a i ʻole ma kahi ʻē aʻe o ke kino.
• Inā hoʻomaka ʻoe e hoʻomohala i nā hōʻailona e like me ka maʻi palū i kekahi mau lā ma hope o ke nahu ʻia ʻana e kahi ʻuku.
• Inā he ʻeha a he mau pehu paha i piha i ka wai.

Aia kekahi mau meaʻai hiki ʻole iā ʻoe ke ʻai ma hope o ka nahu ʻana o ka ʻuiki?

ʻAe, hiki i kahi ʻano kikoʻī o ka nahu ʻuiki ke hana i kahi maʻi i kapa ʻia ʻo alpha-gal syndrome . Ua kapa ʻia kēia he alpha-gal allergy, red meat allergy, a i ʻole tick bite method allergy.

He ʻano mole kō ka Alpha-gal i loaʻa i ka ʻiʻo (mai nā mammals) a me nā huahana ʻē aʻe i hana ʻia mai nā mammals. ʻAʻole loaʻa i loko o kānaka.

Ua hōʻike ʻia nā haʻawina e hiki i nā nahu ʻuʻuku ke hoʻoulu i ka alpha-gal syndrome. Hiki ke ʻike ʻia nā hōʻailona ʻelua a ʻeono hola ma hope o ka ʻai ʻana i ka ʻiʻo, nā huahana waiū, a i ʻole ka lawe ʻana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau i hana ʻia mai ka gelatin. Hiki i nā hōʻailona ke komo pū me ka ʻeha o ka ʻōpū, e like me:

• Ka luaʻi
• Ka luaʻi ʻana
• ʻEha ʻōpū (i kekahi manawa koʻikoʻi)
• ʻO ka ʻāʻī a i ʻole ka indigestion
• Ka maʻi pākī

Hiki paha ke loaʻa nā hōʻailona ʻē aʻe:

• He ʻulaʻula a i ʻole nā ​​hives
• Ke koko haʻahaʻa
• Paʻakikī ka hanu ʻana
• Pōʻino a i ʻole ka nawaliwali
• Ka pehu ʻana o nā lehelehe, ka ʻāʻī, ke alelo, a i ʻole nā ​​maka

ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo, hiki i kēia maʻi alpha-gal ke hoʻoweliweli i ke ola . Ma nā ʻāina e like me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, ua ʻike ʻia ua hana ʻia e nā ʻuku Lone Star a me nā ʻuku ʻeleʻele.

He aha kāu e manaʻo ai inā e nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku?

Hiki paha iā ʻoe ke nahu ʻia e kahi ʻuku a ʻaʻohe pilikia . Akā inā he kānalua kāu, e ʻike i ke kauka.

I kekahi mau hihia, hoʻoholo paha nā kauka e hoʻomaka i ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma mua o ka hana ʻana i kahi hōʻoia paʻa, ʻoiai inā kānalua ʻia ka maʻi Lyme . Ma kekahi mau wahi, hiki i ka pakeneka o nā ʻuku e hiki ke hoʻoili i ka maʻi Lyme ke kiʻekiʻe a hiki i ka 50%.

Ma keʻano laulā, ʻaʻole pono ka hapa nui o nā nahu tick i nā antibiotics.

Pehea e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hōʻemi i ka pilikia o nā nahu ʻana o ka tick?

Inā ʻoe e hana ana i kekahi hana waho, ʻoiai ma kahi ululāʻau, he mea nui e hahai i kēia mau hana maʻalahi e pale aku iā ʻoe iho mai nā ʻuku:

• E ʻaʻahu i nā lole lima lōʻihi, ʻālohilohi ke kala, a i ulana paʻa ʻia. E hōʻemi kēia i ka hiki ʻana o nā makika ke nahu iā ʻoe, a e maʻalahi ka ʻike ʻana inā he makika ma kou lole. E hoʻokomo i kou mau lole komo i loko o kou mau socks, kāmaʻa, a i ʻole nā ​​​​kāmaʻa puki. E paʻakikī kēia i nā makika ke kolo ma lalo o kou mau lole komo.
• I ka hele ʻana ma nā alanui o ka nahele a i ʻole ma waena o nā mahina ʻai mauʻu, e hoʻāʻo e noho ma waenakonu o ke alanui. Ma ka home, e mālama mau i ka mauʻu o ka pā hale i ʻoki ʻia.
• E hoʻohana i nā mea pale pepeke. E hoʻopili i nā mea pale pepeke me 20% a ʻoi aku paha DEET (N, N-diethyl-meta-toluamide) i nā wahi i hōʻike ʻia o ke kino a me nā lole. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i kahi kemika i kapa ʻia ʻo permethrin ma nā lole. Loaʻa kēia mau mea ma nā hale kūʻai lole haʻuki. E heluhelu mau i ka lepili huahana a hoʻohana pono.
• Ma hope o kou hoʻi ʻana mai waho mai , e nānā i nā makika. Hiki iā lākou ke kau ma nā wahi āpau. E nānā i ka lauoho ma kou poʻo, ma nā ʻāpana o kou kino, i loko o kou mau ʻāʻī, ma hope o kou mau kuli, a puni kou pūhaka, ma waena o kou mau wāwae, i loko a ma hope paha o kou mau pepeiao, ma lalo o kou mau ʻāʻī, a ma kou kua.
• Mai poina e nānā i kāu mau holoholona. E kamaʻilio me kāu kauka holoholona e pili ana i nā huahana e pale aku iā lākou mai nā makika.
• E nānā i kou mau lole a me nā mea nona nā makika a holoi koke iā lākou. ʻO ka hoʻokomo ʻana iā lākou i loko o kahi mea maloʻo wela no kahi o 15 mau minuke e pepehi i nā makika.
• He mea maikaʻi ke ʻauʻau ma hope o ka hele wāwae ʻana i loko o ka ululāʻau a ma hope paha o ka hana ʻana ma ka pā hale.

Aia kekahi lāʻau pale no nā kānaka e pale aku ai i nā maʻi i lawe ʻia e ka ʻuku?

ʻAe, aia kahi lāʻau pale i kapa ʻia ʻo TicoVac™ no ka pale ʻana i ka encephalitis i lawe ʻia e ka ʻūlū. Ua ʻāpono ʻia no nā pākeke a me nā keiki ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a ua hoʻohana ʻia ma ʻEulopa no nā makahiki he nui. Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻohe lāʻau pale i kēia manawa no nā maʻi ʻē aʻe i lawe ʻia e ka ʻūlū, e like me ka maʻi Lyme.

Āhea wau e ʻike ai i ke kauka? (He hoʻomanaʻo)

Inā ua nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku a ʻike paha i kahi ʻuku i hoʻopili ʻia i kou kino, e ʻike i ke kauka.

Inā hoʻomaka ʻoe e ʻike i kēia mau hōʻailona i loko o kekahi mau lā a i ʻole mau pule o kou noho ʻana ma nā wahi i loaʻa ai nā makika , pono ʻoe e ʻike i ke kauka :

• ʻO kahi ʻōhū e lilo i mea ʻino aʻe (he ʻōhū ʻili)
• kuni
• ʻEha i nā hono a i ʻole nā ​​​​ʻiʻo
• Luhi nui

ʻO ka noʻonoʻo wale ʻana i nā ʻuku e hoʻopūʻiwa iā ʻoe, ʻeā? ʻO ke ala maikaʻi loa e pale aku ai iā lākou, ʻo ia ka hoʻāʻo e pale aku iā lākou ma kahi mua. E hahai i nā hana palekana ma mua o ka hele ʻana i waho. E pale i kāu mau holoholona mai nā ʻuku pū kekahi. Inā nahu ʻia ʻoe e kahi ʻuku, mai hopohopo. ʻAʻole nā ​​​​nahu ʻuku a pau ke kumu o ka maʻi. Akā inā loaʻa iā ʻoe nā hōʻailona e like me ke kuni, e ʻike i kāu kauka e ʻike i ka mea e hana ai ma hope.

Hōʻuluʻulu Manaʻo (Leka Lawe-Home)

No laila, ʻo ka mea maikaʻi loa e hana ai, ʻo ia ke pale aku iā ʻoe iho mai nā nahu ʻuʻuku. E ʻaʻahu i nā lole kūpono ke hele ʻoe i waho, e hoʻohana i ka mea pale pepeke, a nānā pono iā ʻoe iho ke hoʻi mai ʻoe. Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi ʻuʻuku, e wehe pono iā ia . Mai hopohopo, e hoʻohana i nā tweezers e like me kā mākou i kūkākūkā ai ma mua. Mai hoʻohana i kekahi mea e like me ke kerosene. Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi ʻulaʻula ma kahi o ka nahu ʻana, inā loaʻa iā ʻoe ke kuni, a inā ʻeha ke kino, pono ʻoe e ʻike i ke kauka . E hoʻomanaʻo, hiki i ka mālama mua ke ho'ōla i nā maʻi he nui.

ʻUku , nahu ʻuku, maʻi i lawe ʻia e ka ʻuku, nā ʻeha ʻili, wehe ʻuku, pale ʻuku, maʻi Lyme
