Yu no bɔt dis impɔtant at we de na yu chɛst? (Supɛrfishal Tɛmpɔral Atɛri) .

Tide wi go tɔk bɔt wan smɔl bɔt rili impɔtant at na wi ed, mɔ na di chɛst eria, we wi nɔ kin tink bɔt bɔku tin na wi ɛvride layf. dכkta dεn kכl dis di ``Superficial Temporal Artery''. Nɔ fred, ilɛksɛf di nem tan lɛk se i kɔmplikt smɔl. Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, dis na big chanɛl we de gi layf, dat na blɔd, to wi fes ɛn skel. I tan lɛk smɔl branch we de kɛr wata go na tik.

Wetin mek dis ``Superficial Temporal Artery'' impɔtant to wi?

Okay, naw yu go mɔs de wɔnda, "Wetin so big bɔt dis smɔl at?" di men tin na dat dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)` de gi bכdi to di skin na yu fes εn skel . Jɔs tink bɔt, fɔ mek wi skin gɛt wɛlbɔdi, fɔ mek wi ia gro, ɔl dɛn tin ya nid gud blɔd. Na dat dis wan de ɛp wit.

Nɔto dat nɔmɔ, sɔntɛnde dis at kin rili yus fɔ dɔktɔ dɛn. Imajin, if prɔblɛm de wit blɔd vesel insay di bren (`(Aneurysm)`, ɔ sɔntin lɛk `(Middle Cerebral Artery)` ɔ `(Internal Carotid Artery)`, we de ridyus di blɔd flɔ to di bren, den di blɔd flɔ to di bren de go dɔŋ. Insay dɛn kayn kes ya, dɔktɔ dɛn kin yuz dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)` as ɔda we, dat na, as a `(Bypass Route)`, εn mek bכdi fכ fכlכ to di bren lεk fכ tek כda rod we dεn kכl rod dεn kin yus dis mεtכd bak pan sik dεm lεk `(Moyamoya Disease)`, כ afta wan `(Stroke)`.

כda tin na dat, tεm de we dεn kin yuz dis at as kכndukt fכ sכm `(Endovascular Treatments)`, dat na, tritmεnt dεm we dεn kin du insay di bכdi vεsul dεm, כ tεst lεk `(Angiogram).` So, pan כl we i sכm, di savis we i de gi na big, nכto?

usai dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)` de na wi bכdi?

I rili izi fɔ fɛn am. di supεrfishal tεmporal atεri de jכs bifo yu yes, jכs oba yu chεk bכn, jכs כnda yu skin. fכ bi prεsis, i de stat na di parotid gland, we de jכs dכn εn bifo yu yes. Dɔn i kin go ɔp bitwin yu chɛst ɛn yu yes. If yu tɔch di say we de bifo yu yes jisnɔ wit yu finga dɛn, yu go ebul fɔ fil se di at de pul. Nɔto ɔlman kin fil am, bɔt dat na nɔmal tin.

Yu kin want fɔ no bak usay dis at de kɔmɔt. wi gεt tu men atεri dεm na εvri say na wi nεk, we dεn kכl di `(External Carotid Artery)`. wan pan di branch dεm we de branch kכmכt frכm di εnd fכ dat `(External Carotid Artery)` na di `(Superficial Temporal Artery)`. so, jכs lεk aw wi gεt di `(Carotid Artery)` na di lεft εn rayt say na wi nεk, wi gεt dεn `(Superficial Temporal Artery)` dεm bak na εvri say na wi ed.

Wetin na di branch dεm fכ dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)`?

jכs lεk branch dεm we de branch kכmכt frכm di men trכnk fכ tik, dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)` de branch כf bak to sכm sכm branch dεm. I gɛt tu men branch dɛn:

1. Frontal Branch: Dis de gi bכdi to di mכsul dεm εn di skin na yu fכs.

2. Parietal Branch: dis de gi bכdi to di εria we yu ed de oba yu yes (Parietal εn Temporal rijyכn dεm). Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, i tan lɛk se we yu put ɛdsɛt, i tan lɛk se i de ring.

Apat frɔm dɛn tu men branch dɛn ya, sɔm ɔda smɔl smɔl branch dɛn de. Dɛn na:

• `(Transvas Fes Atri)`
• `(Midul Tɛmpɔral Atɛri)`
• `(Zygomatiko-ɔrbital Atɛri)`
• `(Aurikul Atri)`

Dis kin kɔmplikt smɔl, bɔt wetin i min na dat dɛn smɔl smɔl branch dɛn ya kin gi blɔd to difrɛn pat dɛn na di fes, di say we de rawnd di chɛst, ɛn di say we de rawnd di yes.

Dɛn at ya na di sem fɔ ɔlman? Ɔ yu tink se difrɛns de?

Dis na kwɛstyɔn bak we rili impɔtant. nכ, nכto כlman in ``Superficial Temporal Artery'' branch dεm di sem we . Jɔs lɛk wi finga prɛnt, dis sɛf kin gɛt smɔl difrɛns frɔm wan pɔsin to ɔda pɔsin.

• Dɔn bak, di men say we dis at de sheb to tu kin difrɛn frɔm wan pɔsin to ɔda pɔsin. Fɔ sɔm, i kin sheb smɔl ɔp di chɛst, ɛn fɔ ɔda wan dɛn, i kin sheb smɔl dɔŋ.
• כda tin we de mek yu sɔprayz na dat di strכkchכ fכ di ``Superficial Temporal Artery'' we de na di lεft say na yu כwn ed kin difrεn frכm di wan we de na di rayt say.

na nכmal tin fכ gεt dεn kayn anatomical difrεns ya. Dɔktɔ dɛn kin tink bɔt dɛn difrɛns ya we dɛn de du sɔntin lɛk ɔpreshɔn.

Aw dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)` rili tan lɛk? Aw i fɔm?

lεk כda atεri dεm, di Supafishal Tεmporal Atεri shep lεk tכb. I gɛt tri men layers:

1. di layt we de insay `(Intima)`: dis na mכsul, `(Elastin)` (we de gi di vein dεm dεn elastik) εn wan spεshal tכp sεl we dεn kכl `(Endothelial Cells)`. Dis layt na di wan we de kam nia di blɔd dairekt wan.

2. Midul layεr `(Midia)`: Dis kin gεt mכsul dεm. di dayamita fכ di at, dat na in waid de inkrεs כ dכn bay we i de kכntrakt εn εkspεnd dεn mכsul dεm ya. Dis we ya, dɛn kin kɔntrol di blɔd we de flɔ.

3. di layt we de kכmכt pas כl `(Adventitia): dis layεr na di say we di at de kכnεkt to di tisu dεm we de gεt bכdi frכm am. Dat min se di at de kɔnɛkt to di tin dɛn we de rawnd am.

Dɛn tri layers ya de wok togɛda fɔ mek di at strɔng ɛn ɛp am fɔ du in wok fɔ kɛr blɔd go tru am.

Us sik ɛn dizayd kin afɛkt dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)`?

lεk εni כda כgan, di Superficial Temporal Artery kin afekt difrεn sik dεm εn injuri dεm. Na sɔm pan dɛn:

• Aneurysm: Na di at we de wik, we de mek i bulge lɛk balyɔn.
• Pseudoaneurysm: Wan at de pwɛl ɛn blɔd de gɛda rawnd am, we de mek i tan lɛk aneurysm.
• Temporal Arteritis ɔ Jaynt Cell Arteritis: Dis na wan sik we de mek di at dɛn wam. Dis min se di at kin swel, rεd, εn i kin fil pen. Dis kin bi mɔ kɔmɔn wit di ej.
• Di prɔblɛm dɛn we kin apin we dɛn du plastic ɔpreshɔn na di fes: Sɔntɛnde, di at kin pwɛl we dɛn de du dɛn kayn ɔpreshɔn ya.
• Injury na di fes ɔ ed: Dis at kin kɔt ɔ krɔs we aksidɛnt apin.

E fayn fɔ no bɔt tin dɛm lɛk dis, so dat yu go go to dɔktɔ kwik kwik wan if yu gɛt ɛni sik.

Us sayn dɛn wi kin ɛkspɛkt if wan at at pwɛl?

Imajin, if prɔblɛm de wit yu ``Superficial Temporal Artery'', yu kin gɛt wan ɔ mɔ pan dɛn sayn ya:

• Ɛd pen: Na pen we kin rili bad sɔntɛnde, mɔ na wan ɔ ɔl tu di yes.
• Diziz: Na fɔ fil se tin de spin rawnd yu.

• Blɔd: If wan at de wund, blɔd kin kɔmɔt.

Impɔtant: If yu gɛt ɛni wan pan dɛn sik ya, nɔ jɔs dismis dɛn as "i go mɔs bi se na jɔs smɔl tin." I bɛtɛ fɔ go to dɔktɔ fɔ advays.

Us tɛst dɛn kin du fɔ chɛk if dis at de wɛl?

If dɔktɔ sɔspɛkt se yu gɛt prɔblɛm wit yu ``Superficial Temporal Artery'', dɛn kin du difrɛn tɛst fɔ kɔnfirm di diagnosis. Di tɛst dɛm we dɛn kin yuz mɔ na:

• Ultrasound scan: Dis kin luk di shep fɔ di at ɛn aw blɔd de flɔ tru am. Na tɛst we nɔ de mek pɔsin fil pen ɛn we izi fɔ du.
• CT Skan (Kɔmpyut Tomografi - CT Skan):dis de mek dεn ebul fכ gεt ditayl imej dεm fכ di at εn di tisu dεm we de rawnd am.
• Angiogram: Dis kin min fɔ injɛkt spɛshal day na di at ɛn tek ɛkstrem rayt. dis kin fayn fכ no tin dεm lεk we di at de blok, lεk di anεvrizm.
• MRA (Magnetic Resonance Angiogram - MRA): Dis tan lεk Angiogram, bכt i de yuz MRI tεknכlכji.

Apat frɔm dat, if dɛn tink se pɔsin gɛt wan sik lɛk Temporal Arteritis, dɛn kin du blɔd tɛst . Sɔntɛnde, dɛn kin du bayɔpsi, we kin min se dɛn kin tek smɔl smɔl pan di at fɔ mek dɛn chɛk am.

Wetin na di tritmɛnt dɛm fɔ dis `(Superficial Temporal Artery)`?

Di tritmɛnt dipen pan aw di at pwɛl ɔ di sik dɔn pwɛl. Na sɔm ɛgzampul dɛn ya:

• If yu gɛt aneurism: Dipen pan in saiz ɛn usay i de, dɛn kin nid fɔ du ɔpreshɔn .
• If na ``Pseudoaneurysm'': Sɔntɛnde dɛn kin mɛn am wit ``Thrombin Injection'' (dɛn mɛrɛsin we de mek di blɔd tan).
• Temporal Arteritis: Dɛn kin trit dis mɔ wit mɛrɛsin , mɔ wit stɛroyd. Dɛn fɔ tek dɛn tin ya jɔs lɛk aw yu dɔktɔ tɛl yu.
• If di at pwɛl we aksidɛnt apin: Dipen pan di damej , dɛn kin nid fɔ du ɔpreshɔn fɔ mek di at pwɛl (Surgical repair) .

So, na di dɔktɔ we de chɛk yu go disayd us tritmɛnt we fayn fɔ yu.
