Ingabe uthola amaqhubu esihlathini sakho? Ake sixoxe nge-Parotid Gland!

Namuhla sizokhuluma ngendlala ebaluleke kakhulu emlonyeni wethu ekhiqiza amathe futhi ngezinye izikhathi ingabangela izinkinga ezincane. Yilokhu esikubiza ngokuthi i-Parotid Gland. Kungenzeka ukuthi awukaze uzwe ngaleli gama, kodwa lisiza kakhulu empilweni yethu yomlomo kanye nokugaya ukudla.

Iyini i-Parotid Gland? Ikuphi?

Kalula nje, i-parotid gland ingenye yezindlala zethu eziyinhloko zamathe. Unezindlala ezimbili zalezi, eyodwa ohlangothini ngalunye lwezindlebe zakho. Zitholakala phambi kwezindlebe zakho, ziphansi kancane. Zifana nezikhwama ezincane. Umsebenzi oyinhloko walezi zindlala ukukhiqiza amathe. Uyazi, ukuthi kubaluleke kangakanani amathe ukugcina imilomo yethu imanzi, ukusisiza ukuhlafuna ukudla kwethu, nokusisiza ukugaya ukudla kwethu. Ngaphezu kwezindlala ze-parotid, kunezinye izindlala ezikhiqiza amathe ngaphansi kolimi lwethu ('izindlala ezingaphansi kolimi') nangaphansi komhlathi wethu ('izindlala ezingaphansi kolimi'). Kodwa-ke, ngezinye izikhathi lezi zindlala ze-parotid nazo zingaba nenkinga encane. Izindlala zingavuvukala, zingangenwa yigciwane - odokotela babiza lokhu ngokuthi 'i-parotitis' - futhi abanye abantu bangaze babe 'namathumba'. Uma lokho kwenzeka, odokotela bavame ukunikeza ama-antibiotic , bafake ama-compress afudumele, futhi bahlikihle indlala. Kwezinye izimo ezinzima, ukuhlinzwa, ukwelashwa ngemisebe, kanye ne-chemotherapy kungadingeka.

Uyini ngempela umsebenzi we-Parotid Gland?

Lezi zindlala ze-parotid zenza umsebenzi omningi kunalokho ongase ukucabange.

• Lezi zindlala zikhiqiza uhlobo oluthile lwamathe olumanzi, olufana namanzi.
• Akukhona lokho kuphela, kodwa futhi kukhipha i-enzyme ekhethekile ebizwa ngokuthi i-'amylase'. Yilokhu okuqalisa ukugaya kwesitashi ekudleni esikudlayo.

Ngakho-ke, leli cwecwe libaluleke kakhulu empilweni yethu yomlomo kanye nempilo yomzimba wonke. Bheka ukuthi kwenzekani ngaleli cwecwe:

• Gcina umlomo wakho umanzi ngaso sonke isikhathi.
• Kuyasiza enqubweni yokugaya ukudla.
• Kunciphisa amagciwane ayingozi emlonyeni.
• Futhi kusiza ekuvikeleni ekuboleni kwamazinyo (izimbobo).

Okuthile okumangalisayo nge-Parotid Gland!

Ubuwazi? Ngokuvamile, cishe u-10% wamathe aphelele emlonyeni wakho avela kulezi zindlala ze-parotid. Kodwa-ke, uma udla, leli nani liyakhuphuka lifinyelele cishe ku-25%! Cabanga ngokubaluleka kwalo, ukuthi kusiza kangakanani ekugayeni ukudla ngendlela efanele.

Zikuphi ngempela izindlala ze-Parotid?

Njengoba kushiwo ngaphambili, lezi zindlala ezimbili zitholakala ngezansi nje futhi ziphambi kancane kwezindlebe zakho. Amathe avela ku-parotid gland angena emlonyeni wakho ngepayipi elincane elibizwa ngokuthi 'i-Stensen's duct'. Isiphetho saleli payipi sivulekela emhlathini wakho ongaphezulu eduze kwamazinyo akho. Ezinye izindlala zethu ezinkulu zamathe, i-'sublingual' kanye ne-'submandibular', zixhunywe kwelinye ipayipi elibizwa ngokuthi 'i-Wharton's duct'. Lokhu kukhipha amathe ngaphansi kolimi lwakho, phansi komlomo wakho.

Ibukeka kanjani i-gland ye-parotid?

Lokhu kubukeka njengephiramidi ebheke phansi, ebanzi phezulu futhi encipha phansi.

• Ingxenye engenhla iqala ibanzi futhi iba mncane kancane njengoba umhlathi ongezansi usondela.
• Kukhona ama-lymph node amboze ingaphandle le-gland.
• Uhlangothi lwangaphakathi lubonakala lujule kancane, njengoba luhlala ethanjeni lomhlathi kanye nomsipha we-masseter (umsipha omkhulu osiza ekuhlafuneni ukudla) esihlathini.
• Enye into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi 'i-facial nerve' (eyaziwa ngokwezokwelapha ngokuthi i-cranial nerve VII), elawula ukunyakaza kobuso bethu, idlula kule gland. Le nzwa ihlukanisa i-gland ibe izingxenye ezimbili, i-'superficial lobe' (i-outer lobe) kanye ne-'deep lobe' (i-inner lobe).

Inombala onjani le ndlala? Ingakanani? Inesisindo esingakanani?

• Umbala: Indlala empeleni iphuzi, kodwa izungezwe izicubu ezixhumeneyo ezipinki.
• Usayizi: Lena yindlala enkulu kunazo zonke esinayo. Ngokuvamile ingamasentimitha angu-5.8 ubude kanye namasentimitha angu-3.4 ububanzi.
• Isisindo: Isisindo esimaphakathi singamagremu angu-14.28.

Kungani lezi zindlala ze-parotid zivuvukala? Ziyini izimbangela?

Abantu abaningi banenkinga yokuvuvukala nobuhlungu endaweni yesihlathi sakho. Kungaba nezizathu eziningana zalokhu. Ake sibheke eziyinhloko:

• I-Sialolithiasis : Kalula nje, lokhu ukwakheka kwamatshe amancane (i-calculi, noma i-calcium deposits) ngaphakathi kwemisele yamathe. Lawa matshe avimba ukugeleza kwamathe, okwenza indlala ivuvuke futhi ibe buhlungu. Lobuhlungu buba bubi kakhulu lapho udla, njengoba lokhu kubangela ukukhiqizwa kwamathe amaningi.
• I- Sialadenitis : Lokhu ukutheleleka kwe-parotid gland. Lokhu kungenzeka ngezindlela eziningi. Kungabangelwa amatshe ashiwo ngenhla, noma kungabangelwa amagciwane, noma kungabangelwa igciwane. Isibonelo, `ukutheleleka kwe-staph` kanye `igciwane le-mumps` kungabangela lesi simo.
• Izimila ze-Parotid Gland:Lezi zimila zingakhula kunoma iyiphi ingxenye yendlala. Ngisho noma kunjalo, umhlathi usaphilile, futhi ubuso buvuvukele. Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi iningi lalezi zimila azinawo umdlavuza. Lokho kusho ukuthi aziyingozi. Kodwa-ke, kunethuba elincane lokuthi izimila ezinomdlavuza zingakhula.
• Umdlavuza we-Parotid gland: Umdlavuza we-salivary gland empeleni awuvamile uma uqhathaniswa nezinye izinhlobo zomdlavuza. Isibonelo, i-mucoepidermoid carcinoma kanye ne-adenoid cystic carcinoma. Zibalelwa phakathi kuka-6% no-8% wazo zonke izinhlobo zomdlavuza wekhanda nentamo. Kodwa-ke, uma uba nalolu hlobo lomdlavuza, kubalulekile ukuthola ukwelashwa ngokushesha okukhulu. Ngaphandle kwalokho, amangqamuzana omdlavuza angasakazeka kuma-lymph node.

Yiziphi izimpawu ze-parotid gland evalekile?

Esikhathini esiningi, izimpawu zenkinga nge-parotid gland zingafana. Bheka ukuthi unayo yini yalezi:

• Ukuvuvukala kobuso nomhlathi.
• Ubuhlungu (ngezinye izikhathi lobu buhlungu buba bubi kakhulu ngemva kokudla).
• Imfiva.

Yiziphi izivivinyo ezitholakalayo zokuhlola impilo ye-parotid gland?

Njenganoma yikuphi ukugula, into yokuqala oyenzayo uma uya kudokotela ukuhlola umzimba. Izindlala zakho ze-parotid zizophathwa ukuze kuhlolwe ubuhlungu nokuvuvukala. Uma udokotela esola ukuthi kukhona okungahambi kahle, uzoyala ukuhlolwa okwengeziwe. Lokhu kufaka phakathi:

• I-biopsy yenaliti: Lokhu kuhilela ukuthatha isampula encane yoketshezi oluvela ku-parotid gland kusetshenziswa inaliti encane. Luthunyelwa elabhorethri ukuze kubonakale ukuthi inkinga iyini.
• Ukuhlolwa kwezithombe: Lezi yizikena ezahlukahlukene ezingabona ngokucacile ingaphakathi lendlala. Ungase ucelwe ukuthi wenze i-MRI, i-ultrasound, noma i-CT scan.

Yiziphi izindlela zokwelapha ezivamile zezifo ze-Parotid Gland?

Ukwelashwa kuncike embangela yenkinga yakho. Isibonelo:

• Uma indlala ivuvukele ngenxa yokutheleleka ngamagciwane, udokotela cishe uzokunikeza ama-antibiotic.
• Uma amatshe ebhajwe emigudwini yamathe, udokotela angase ancome ukubhucungwa kobuso noma isiphuzo esimuncu njenge-lime toffee. Lokhu kuzokwandisa ukukhiqizwa kwamathe, okungasiza ukuphuma kwamathe. Uma lokhu kungasizi, imithi ekhethekile inganikezwa ukwandisa ukugeleza kwamathe. Uma lokhu kwelashwa okungewona ukuhlinzwa kungasizi, kungase kudingeke ukuhlinzwa ukuze kususwe amatshe.
• Uma kukhona izimila endlaleni ye-parotid, kuvame ukwenziwa ukuhlinzwa okubizwa ngokuthi i-parotidectomy. Lokhu kuhilela ukususa ingxenye noma yonke indlala.
• Abantu abanomdlavuza we-parotid gland bangadinga ukuhlinzwa ukuze kususwe i-gland kanye/noma i-chemotherapy kanye/noma ukwelashwa ngemisebe.

Indlela yokwelapha i-parotid gland evuvukele?

Uma indlala yakho ye-parotid ivuvukele, ungesabi. Ngezinye izikhathi, ukumunca into efana ne-sour toffee noma ucezu lwelamula kungasiza. Lokhu kuzokwandisa ukukhiqizwa kwamathe futhi kusize ekususeni noma yikuphi ukungcola okubambeke emgudwini womsele.

Kodwa-ke, uma le nkinga iqhubeka isikhathi esingaphezu kosuku olulodwa noma ezimbili, kufanele nakanjani ubonane nodokotela. Anganquma imbangela eqondile yokuvuvukala futhi akunike uhlelo lokwelashwa olufanele wena.

Ngingazigcina kanjani izindlala zami ze-parotid ziphilile?

Ukuze ugcine izindlala zakho ze-parotid ziphilile, isihluthulelo ukuqinisekisa ukuthi ukhiqiza amathe anele ukugcina umlomo wakho umanzi. Nazi amathiphu ambalwa angakusiza ukwenza lokho kanye:
