"Dokotela, kuzwakala kumangalisa uma ngisebenzisa ama-cotton buds ukuhlanza izindlebe zami. Kodwa kusukela izolo, indlebe yami yesokudla ivalekile ngokuphelele futhi angizwa. Iqala ngisho nokubuhlungu ngaphakathi endlebeni yami," kusho uLahiru oneminyaka engu-24 etshela uDkt. Priya, evala indlebe yakhe yesokudla ngesandla sakhe.
UDkt. Priya wachaza ngokumomotheka okumnene, "Lahiru, yize ukusebenzisa izinti zezindlebe kunganikeza impumuzo yesikhashana ngokuvuselela imizwa endlebeni, futhi kubangela ukuthi i-wax ithinteke kakhulu. Izinti zezindlebe azifanele ukuhlanza izindlebe. Indlebe inekhono lemvelo lokuzihlanza. Ukusetshenziswa njalo kwezinti zezindlebe kungabangela ngisho nokubhoboka kwe-eardrum."
Yiziphi izingozi ezindlebeni ezibangelwa ama-cotton bud esivame ukuwasebenzisa ukuhlanza izindlebe zethu? Kulesi sihloko, ake siqonde ukuthi iyini i-earwax nokuthi singazihlanza kanjani izindlebe zethu ngokuphephile.
Iyini injongo ye-earwax endlebeni yangaphandle?
Abantu abaningi bacabanga nge-earwax njengento engcolile, enamathelayo eqoqana endlebeni. Kodwa-ke, i-earwax, eyaziwa ngesayensi yezokwelapha ngokuthi i-cerumen, iwuketshezi lwemvelo olubalulekile empilweni yendlebe.
I-wax ekhiqizwa yizindlala ezikhethekile emseleni wendlebe yenza imisebenzi elandelayo:
- Ukuvimbela uthuli, ukungcola, namagciwane avela ngaphandle ukuthi angangeni endlebeni.
- Ukuvimbela umsele wendlebe ukuthi wome futhi kulondolozwe umswakama wawo.
- Ukuvumela amangqamuzana esikhumba afile ukuba aphume ngokwemvelo endlebeni.
Kungani ukusebenzisa ama-cotton buds kuyingozi ezindlebeni?
Ama-ear bud aklanyelwe ukuhlanza ingaphandle lendlebe, hhayi ukuthi afakwe emgudwini wendlebe. Ukuwasebenzisa kungabangela izingozi ezilandelayo:
#### 1. I-Earwax Ethintekile:
Uma ufaka induku, i-wax isunduzelwa phambili iye e-eardrum esikhundleni sokuphuma. Lokhu kungabangela ukuthi i-wax ibe ungqimba olujiyile futhi ivale indlebe, okubangela ukulahlekelwa ukuzwa nobuhlungu bendlebe.
#### 2. Ukubhoboka kwendlebe:
Uma ama-earplug ecindezelwa kakhulu ngengozi, angabhoboza i-eardrum, ulwelwesi oluthambile kakhulu olumunca amaza omsindo. Lokhu kungaholela ekubeni yisithulu sesikhashana noma esihlala njalo.
#### 3. Ukuklwebha Nokutheleleka Komsele Wendlebe (i-Otitis Externa):
Isikhumba esibucayi emgudwini wendlebe singonakaliswa yi-earwax. Lokhu kulimala kungavumela amagciwane ukuthi angene futhi kubangele ukutheleleka endlebeni engaphandle.
#### 4. Uboya bekotini obusele endlebeni:
Kwezinye izimo, i-cotton tip ye-earwax iyakhululeka bese ihlala endlebeni, okubangela ukungakhululeki okukhulu kanye nokutheleleka.
๐ฉบ Ungazihlanza kanjani izindlebe ngokuphephile?
Ngokuvamile, indlebe inekhono lemvelo lokuzihlanza. Uma sihlafuna futhi sikhuluma, ukunyakaza komhlathi kancane kancane kusunduza i-wax endala ngaphandle. Ukusula ingaphandle lendlebe ngethawula ngemva kokugeza kwanele.
Izindlela zokwelapha ezilandelayo zingasetshenziswa ezigulini ezinezikhwehlela eziningi:
- Amaconsi Endlebe: Njengoba kuqondiswe udokotela, sebenzisa amaconsi ambalwa amaconsi e-sodium bicarbonate noma uwoyela womnqumo noma uwoyela wezingane ukuze uthambise i-earwax bese uyivumela ukuthi incibilike ngokwemvelo.
- Ukunisela Indlebe/Ukuhlikihla: Uma i-earwax iqinile, cela udokotela ukuthi afake isisombululo se-saline bese eyihlanza ngokuphephile.
- Ukumunca okuncane: Ukususwa kwe-earwax kusetshenziswa amadivayisi okumunca nguchwepheshe wezindlebe, ikhala kanye nomphimbo (Udokotela We-ENT Surgeon).
๐จ Amafulegi Abomvu Okufanele Akhuthaze Ukwelashwa Kwezokwelapha
Uma unezimpawu ezilandelayo, ungalokothi ufake lutho endlebeni yakho bese ubona udokotela ngokushesha:
- Ukuphuma koketshezi endlebeni, njengobomvu, igazi, noma amanzi.
- Ukulahlekelwa ukuzwa ngokuzumayo noma ukukhala ezindlebeni (i-tinnitus).
- Ukuzungeza okukhulu noma ukulahlekelwa yibhalansi.
- Ubuhlungu obukhulu kanye nomkhuhlane ozungeze i-eardrum.
๐ ๏ธ Izinyathelo Zokuvikela Impilo Yendlebe
- Isinyathelo Sokuqala: Kusukela namuhla, yeka ngokuphelele ukufaka noma yiziphi izinto zangaphandle, njengezindwangu zikakotini, izikhonkwane zezinwele, umentshisi, noma okhiye, ezindlebeni zakho ukuze uzihlanze.
- Isinyathelo sesi-2: Ngemva kokugeza, sula kuphela ubuso bendlebe nangemuva kwendlebe ngethawula elihlanzekile nelimanzi.
- Isinyathelo Sesithathu: Uma uzwa umuzwa wokusinda endlebeni noma ukulahlekelwa ukuzwa, njengoba kuqondiswe udokotela wakho, faka amaconsi angu-2-3 kawoyela womnqumo kabili ngosuku izinsuku ezintathu ukuze uthambise i-earwax.

โ Eminye imibuzo ongase ube nayo (Imibuzo Ebuzwa Njalo)
Kulungile yini ukusebenzisa uwoyela kakhukhunathi ekhaya ukuze uthambise ama-callus ?
Cha. Ukufaka uwoyela kakhukhunathi ongacwengiwe endlebeni kungabangela ukutheleleka ngamagciwane kanye nesikhunta (i-otomycosis). Kuphephile ukusebenzisa amaconsi ambalwa amafutha omnqumo ahlanzekile noma uwoyela we-alimondi, angatholakala emakhemisi.
Ingabe ukusebenzisa ama-earplug kungenza izindlebe zakho zilume noma zicasuke ?
Yebo. I-Earwax ingomisa umswakama wemvelo emgudwini wendlebe, okwenza isikhumba esilumayo kanye nokuqhekeka (isimo se-earwax) kube kubi kakhulu. Ukuluma kuzophela kancane kancane uma uyeka ukusebenzisa i-earwax.
Ingabe umuntu one-eardrum enezimbobo anganikwa indlebe yakhe amanzi?โผ
Lutho neze. Uma amanzi noma olunye uketshezi lufakwa endlebeni yesiguli esine-eardrum ebhobokile, indlebe ephakathi ingase itheleleke futhi ibangele ubuthulu obukhulu kanye nokulahlekelwa ibhalansi. Ukwelashwa okufanele kwenziwe yi-micro-suction kuphela.
Kungani abantu abasebenzisa ama-headphone bevame ukuba nobuhlungu bendlebe?
Uma ama-headphone noma ama-earbud egqokwa njalo endlebeni, indlela yemvelo yokukhipha amanzi endlebeni iyavalwa. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuncipha komoya ophumayo ngaphakathi endlebeni kubangela ukujuluka nomswakama ukunqwabelana, okwenza i-earwax ibe nkulu futhi iqine ngokushesha.
