Wetin na di vestibular sistεm? Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan...

Tink bɔt am, ivin we wi jɔs tinap, wi de muv ɔltɛm wit di wɔl we de rawnd wi. we dis vestibular sistεm de wok fayn fayn wan, i de tεl yu bכdi aw yu de muv, aw tin dεm we de arawnd yu de muv, εn i de εp fכ kip yu bεlε, כ di bεlε na yu bכdi, stebul.

Dis sistɛm gɛt tu men pat dɛn:

• di pεrifεral vεstibular sistεm: dis na wetin bכku pipul dεn kin rili min we dεn se "vestibular sistεm." I gɛt fayv sɛns ɔgan dɛn na yu insay yes. Dɛn tin ya de gi infɔmeshɔn bɔt aw yu de tinap, aw yu de tinap, ɛn aw yu de muv we impɔtant fɔ mek yu bɔdi balans.

Aw dis kin wok? Aw yu kin mek yu bɔdi balans?

yu vεstibular sistεm na wan rili imכtant pat pan wan kכmpleks sεns sistεm we de εp yu fכ kip yu bεlε. I de ɛp wi fɔ tinap stret we wi de waka, rɔn, ɛn leta wi tinap stret.

Dis na wetin kin apin:

di vestibular sistεm na yu insay yes de no di muvmεnt dεm na yu ed. Dɔn i kin sɛn dis infɔmeshɔn to yu bren. Dɛn muvmɛnt ya de gi yu infɔmeshɔn bɔt usay yu de ɛn aw yu de insay rilayshɔn to di tin dɛn we de arawnd yu. yu bren de kam togεda dis data wit sεns infכmeshכn frכm yu yay εn sεns infכmeshכn frכm yu mכsul dεm εn jכint dεm.

Imajin se yu de waka na grɔn we nɔ ivin. If yu nak smɔl ston wantɛm wantɛm wit yu fut, yu nɔ go fɔdɔm wantɛm wantɛm, nɔto so? Yu bɔdi go swɛla smɔl ɛn afta dat i go stret bak. Na da tɛm de, yu yay, di vestibular sistɛm na yu yes, ɛn di mɔsul dɛn na yu leg dɛn ɔl kin kam togɛda fɔ sev yu.

bays pan dεn tri input dεm (vestibular system + yay + mכsul dεm εn joyn dεm), yu bren de sεnd signal to yu bכdi fכ aw fכ mεnten bεlε.

di rεflεks dεm na di vεstibular sistεm na amazing!

di vestibular sistεm nכto jכs wan sεparat כgan. I gɛt tayt padi biznɛs wit yu yay, mɔsul, ɛn jɔyn dɛn, ɛn i kin mek di wok dɛn we de kɔntrol di balans wok togɛda ɔtomɛtik wan. Tu men tin dɛn we kin mek pɔsin fil fayn kin ɛp fɔ du dis:

• Vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR): yu yay dεm εn yu vestibular sistεm de wok tכgeda fכ kip yu yay na wan ples ivin we yu de muv. Imajin se yu de rɔn go to wan target. Pan ɔl we yu de muv yu ed frɔm wan say to di ɔda say, yu yay stil de pan di target, nɔto so? Yu nɔ de jomp rawnd we yu de rɔn. Dat na bikɔs ɔf dis riflɛks we dɛn kɔl VOR . Dat min se yu yay dɛn de muv di ɔda say we yu ed de muv fɔ mek yu yay nɔ de muv. If dis nɔ bin de, i go izi fɔ mek yu diziz ɛn fɔdɔm.

• di vεstibulospinal rεflεks (VS rεflεks): yu mכsul dεm de ajɔst to di chenj dεm we de apin na yu vεstibulכr sistεm. Imajin se yu de waka na rod we nɔ ivin ɛn we gɛt grɔn.

di כgan dεm na yu vεstibular sistεm de na yu insay yes . Yu insay yes na di say bak we di kɔklia de, we de ɛp yu fɔ yɛri. כda pat de na di insay yes we dεn kכl di vestibular labyrinth . insay de na di say we yu fayv vεstibular כgan dεm (dεn kכl dεm bak "vestibular apparatus") de.

Dɛn ɔgan dɛn ya kin no usay yu ed de ɛn dɛn kin sɛn signal to sɔm pat dɛn na di bren we kin ɛp yu fɔ balans.

Wetin na di pat dεm na di vεstibular sistεm?

fayv men vεstibular כgan dεm de insay di vεstibular apεrat na yu insay yes:

• Tri kanal dɛn we gɛt sɛmi sɛkɔral

Kanal dɛn we gɛt sɛmi sɛkɔral

dis na tri tiub dεm na yu insay yes we de no di ed muvmεnt dεm we de rכt.

• Supiriɔ kanal: .dεn kin no di ed muvmεnt dεm we de kכmכt כp εn dכn (lεk fכ nכd yu ed fכ se "yes").

Us sik dεm de afekt di vεstibular sistεm?

Bɔt i sɔri fɔ no se ivin dis wɔndaful sistɛm kin gɛt prɔblɛm sɔntɛnde. Na da tɛm de tin lɛk fɔ gɛt diziz ɛn fɔ fɔdɔm kin apin. Tu men tin dɛn de we prɔblɛm kin apin:

di mכst kכmכn pεrifεral (insay ia) vεstibular dizכrd dεm na:

• Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) : Dis na we di sכm sכm bכl dεm we dεn kכl otoconia kin muv insay di kanal dεm sכmtεm. Dis kin mek yu diziz bad bad wan we yu de muv yu ed.
• Labyrinthitis : Na infεkshכn כ inflameshn na di vestibular apparatus na di insay yes.

• Diziz we pɔsin kin gɛt we i de fil (PPPD) .: Na diziz we de kɔntinyu fɔ de ɛn we at fɔ fɛn rizin fɔ.
• Vestibular migraines: Diziz we kin kam wit maygren.

aw yu go no if prכblεm de wit di vestibular sistεm? Wetin na di sayn dɛm we de sho se yu gɛt dis sik?

Di men sayn dɛm fɔ balans prɔblɛm na diziz ɛn vertigo . Dɛn tu tin ya kin mek yu nɔ fil fayn ɛn i nɔ kin izi fɔ tinap, bɔt dɛn difrɛn smɔl.

If yu gɛt diziz, yu kin fil se:

• Woozy we de na di wɔl
• Layt-hed, fil layt-hed
• Filin disoriented, nɔr ebul fɔ figure out usai yu de (Disoriented) .

If yu gɛt "vertigo" (sivɛri diziz/spinning), yu kin fil:

• I kin tan lɛk se yu de spin pan ɔl we yu jɔs tinap wansay.
• Fɔ fil lɛk se di wan ol wɔl de spin rawnd yu.

Sɔm pipul dɛn kin se, "A de fil diziz." I kin bi diziz, ɔ i kin bi vertigo. Na vertigo, bɔrku tɛm yu kin fil lɛk yu ɔr de envayrɔmɛnt wae de arawnd yu de spin. I tan lɛk se yu de pan tɔys we de spin.

Along wit dis simptom, dipכnt pan di spεshal vestibular kכndishכn wae yu gεt, yu kin gεt כda simptom dεm bak wae de afekt yu yεri εn vishכn. biכs yu vestibular sistεm kכnekt klos to yu yay εn yes (di men sens כgan dεm de bak na di insay yes), sכmtεm dεn prכblεm ya kin כvalap.
