Ngaba wakha wazibuza ukuba singazenza njani ezi zinto ngaphandle kokuba amathambo ethu akhuhlane okanye enzekale xa sibaleka, sitsiba, siphakamisa iintsimbi, okanye senza imisebenzi yemihla ngemihla? Isizathu esiphambili soku sisicwili esikhethekileyo esibizwa ngokuba yi-'cartilage' esikhusela amalungu ethu kwaye sifumaneka phakathi kwamathambo. Ngamafutshane, sinjenge-'shock absorber' emzimbeni wethu.
Yeyiphi inkonzo enikezelwa yi-cartilage emizimbeni yethu?
I-Cartilage sisicwili esiqinileyo, kodwa esiguquguqukayo esikhusela amathambo namalungu ethu. Ngokukodwa, i-cartilage inemisebenzi emithathu ephambili.
- Ukwaphula ukothuka: Oku kutsala uxinzelelo, okanye ukothuka, oluza emathanjeni nakwiindawo zethu zokudibana ngexesha lokuhamba nokuhamba. Cinga ngako, akukunciphisi na uxinzelelo oluphantsi kwiinyawo zethu xa sitsiba 'kwisihlangu sokubaleka' esihle kunaxa sitsiba singanxibanga zihlangu? I-Cartilage isebenza njengomqamelo kweso 'sihlangu' singaphakathi kwamalungu ethu.
- Ukunciphisa ukungqubana: I-cartilage ithintela amathambo amabini ekukhuhlaneni kwelinye ilungu, nto leyo enceda ukuba ahambe kakuhle nangokulula. Oku kuthintela amathambo ekugugeni.
- Izakhiwo ezixhasayo: I-cartilage inceda amalungu ethu ukuba agcine imo yawo kwaye ashukume. Ikwanceda ukudibanisa izicubu ezifana nemisipha yethu, imisipha, kunye nemisipha emathanjeni ethu.
Ukongeza kule misebenzi iphambili, i-cartilage ikwayi-tissue ephambili kwezinye iindawo zomzimba wethu. Umzekelo, impumlo yethu, ii-earlobes, kunye ne-trachea zenziwe nge-cartilage.
Ziziphi iintlobo ze-cartilage ezikhoyo emzimbeni wethu?
Kukho iintlobo ezintathu eziphambili ze-cartilage emzimbeni wethu. Uhlobo ngalunye lunomsebenzi othile. Makhe sijonge ukuba zeziphi.
| Uhlobo lwe-cartilage | Inkcazo | Iindawo emzimbeni |
|---|---|---|
| I-Hyaline cartilage | Olu lolona hlobo luqhelekileyo lwe-cartilage emizimbeni yethu. Luthambile kakhulu kwaye lutyibilika, lunceda amathambo ukuba ahambe ngaphandle kokukhuhlana. Nangona luguquguquka, lomelele ngokwaneleyo ukugcina imilo yamalungu. | - Iziphelo zamathambo ezenza amalungu - Phakathi kweembambo - Kwimiqolo yempumlo |
| I-Fibrocartilage | Njengoko igama lisitsho, olu luhlobo oluqinileyo lwe-cartilage olwenziwe ngemicu exineneyo. Lona aluguquguquki kangako kwiintlobo ezintathu. Lunceda ekubambeni amalungu omzimba kwaye lukwazi ukufunxa ukuthuthumela okunzima. | - I-meniscus yedolo - Iidiski phakathi kwamathambo omqolo - Njengenkxaso yemisipha, imisipha kunye nemisipha |
| I-cartilage ethambileyo | Olu lolona hlobo lwe-cartilage oluguquguqukayo emzimbeni wethu. Lulo oluxhasa iindawo ezifuna ukugoba nokushukuma. Xa sigoba kwaye sivula iindlebe zethu, zibuyela kwimo yazo yokuqala, akunjalo? Oku kungenxa yale cartilage ethambileyo. | - Iindlebe zangaphandle - Iityhubhu ze-Eustachian - Ingxolo/ibhokisi yelizwi |
Ziziphi izifo eziqhelekileyo ezichaphazela i-cartilage?
Zininzi iindlela ezahlukeneyo apho i-cartilage inokonakala khona. Ngamanye amaxesha inokwenzeka ngequbuliso kwingozi, okanye inokonakala kancinci kancinci ngokuhamba kwexesha.
- Ukulimala: I-cartilage ingakrazuka okanye yaphuke ngexesha lemidlalo okanye ezinye iingozi. Ukulimala okufana nokukrazula i-meniscus yedolo okanye ukukhubeka kwegxalaba kunokonakalisa i-cartilage edityanisiweyo. Ngamanye amaxesha, ukwenzakala kwidityanisiweyo kunokubangela imeko ebizwa ngokuba yi-"Osteochondritis dissecans".
- I-Osteoarthritis: Ngamafutshane, i-osteoarthritis lolona hlobo luqhelekileyo lwe-arthritis. Njengoko sikhula, i-cartilage esemalungeni ethu iyaphela kancinci kancinci. Oku kunciphisa ukunamathelana kwamathambo, okubangela iintlungu kunye nokudumba kwamalungu.
- Iidiski zeHerniated: Oku kubizwa ngokuba yi "slipped disk." Le meko yenzeka xa iidiski zecartilage phakathi kwamathambo omqolo wethu zikrazukile okanye zonakele.
Ugqirha ufumana njani ingxaki nge-cartilage?
Ugqirha wakho akayi kuhlola i-cartilage yedwa. Endaweni yoko, uya kwenza uvavanyo olupheleleyo lomzimba ukuze ajonge iimpawu. Ukongeza, banokuyalela iimvavanyo zokujonga ngaphakathi emzimbeni, ezinje:
- Ii-X-reyi
- Iskeni ye-MRI (i-MRI)
- Iskeni ye-CT
Ziziphi iindlela zonyango lwe-cartilage eyonakeleyo?
Iindlela zonyango ziyahluka ngokuxhomekeke kwindawo kunye nohlobo lomonakalo. Rhoqo, xa i-cartilage yonakele, nezinye izicwili ezijikelezileyo nazo ziyakonakala. Ngenxa yoko, ugqirha uyalingeka ukuba anyange yonke ingozi.
Ezinye iingozi ze-cartilage ziyaphola ngokuhamba kwexesha ngokuphumla. Kodwa ezinye iingozi ezinkulu zifuna utyando. Oku kudla ngokwenziwa ngotyando lwe-keyhole olubizwa ngokuba yi-arthroscopy. Kule nkqubo, ugqirha angayithunga i-cartilage ekrazukileyo okanye ayichebe okanye ayichebe ukuze abuyisele umsebenzi wayo. Thetha nogqirha wakho malunga nonyango olufunekayo kunye nexesha lokuchacha.
Okona kubaluleke kakhulu, kuba i-cartilage ayinayo igazi elithe ngqo (i-avascular), kuthatha ixesha elide ukuphiliswa kunezinye iindawo zomzimba.
Singayigcina njani i-cartilage yethu isempilweni?
Imikhwa emihle yempilo inceda ukugcina i-cartilage yethu kunye namalungu omzimba exhasayo esempilweni.
- Ukuzilolonga rhoqo: Ukuqinisa izihlunu ezijikeleze amalungu kunokunciphisa uxinzelelo kumalungu.
- Gcina ubunzima obusempilweni: Njengoko ubunzima bomzimba wakho busanda, uxinzelelo kumalungu akho, ingakumbi amadolo akho kunye nezinqe, luyanda. Ukulawula ubunzima bakho kunokunceda ekunciphiseni ukubola kwe-cartilage.
- Kuphephe ukutshaya: Ukutshaya nokusebenzisa ezinye iimveliso zecuba kuyayicothisa inkqubo yokuphiliswa kuba kunciphisa ukuhamba kwegazi ukuya kwizicwili zomzimba.
Ukuba uyaphola emva kokwenzakala, qiniseka ukuba ulandela imiyalelo kagqirha wakho. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukuphumla ude uphile ngokupheleleyo. Ukuba uqala ukudlala imidlalo okanye ukubaleka kwakhona ngaphambi kokuba i-cartilage iphole ngokupheleleyo, unamathuba amaninzi okulimala kwakhona kwindawo efanayo.
Umyalezo Wokuya Ekhaya
- I-cartilage sisicwili esibalulekileyo esikhusela amalungu namathambo ethu kwaye sisebenza 'njengesixhobo sokufunxa uloyiko' emzimbeni.
- Kukho iintlobo ezintathu eziphambili ze-cartilage emzimbeni wethu (i-hyaline, i-fibrocartilage, i-elastic), nganye kuzo inomsebenzi owahlukileyo.
- I-cartilage ingonakaliswa ziingozi kunye ne-osteoarthritis eyenzeka xa uluphala.
- Ekubeni i-cartilage ingenalo igazi eliphuma ngqo, kuthatha ixesha ukuphola ukuba yonakele. Ngoko ke, kubaluleke kakhulu ukuphumla ide iphole ngokupheleleyo, ngaphandle kokuyikhawulezisa.
- Ukugcina indlela yokuphila esempilweni (ukuzilolonga, ukulawula ubunzima) kunokunceda ukugcina i-cartilage yakho isempilweni ixesha elide.
