Wake wezwa umsindo wokubhonga noma wokuchofoza uvela emhlathini wakho lapho udla, ukhuluma, noma uvula umlomo wakho? Ngezinye izikhathi ungahambisana nobuhlungu obuncane. Lokhu kuyinto evamile kakhulu kubantu abaningi. Kodwa-ke, uma lo msindo uvela njalo futhi uhambisana nobuhlungu, kuvamile ukuzizwa wesaba kancane. Ngakho-ke namuhla, ake sixoxe ngalo msindo wokubhonga, noma lokho esikubiza ngokuthi `(Jaw Popping)`.
Uyini ngempela lo msindo ovela ekhonweni?
Kalula nje, lokhu kungaba uphawu lwenkinga encane ngejoyinti lakho lomhlathi. Ijoyinti lethu lomhlathi, ijoyinti eliphakathi kwemihlathi ephezulu nengezansi eduze kwendlebe, laziwa ngokwezokwelapha ngokuthi i-Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ). Leli joyinti yilona elisebenzayo lapho sikhuluma, sidla, futhi sihleka.
Ngaphakathi kwaleli lunga kukhona idiski encane eyenziwe nge-cartilage ebizwa ngokuthi i-articular disk. Ifana ne-shock absorber emotweni. Umsebenzi wayo ukuvimbela amathambo amabili omhlathi ukuthi angahlangani ndawonye nokwenza ilunga linyakaze kalula. Ngezinye izikhathi le disk ihamba kancane. Yilapho-ke sizwa khona lowo msindo 'wokuchofoza' lapho sivula futhi sivala imilomo yethu.
Lesi simo 'sokuqaqamba kwemihlathi' sivame ukuhlotshaniswa nesimo esibizwa ngokuthi 'i-Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMD).' Lokhu kungahambisana nezinye izimpawu.
- Ubuhlungu esihlanganyelweni somhlathi kanye nobuso
- Ubuhlungu bekhanda obuvamile
- Ubuhlungu bendlebe noma umuzwa wokukhala ezindlebeni
- Ubuhlungu bentamo
Ngezinye izikhathi, kuyinto evamile ukwenza umsindo uma uvula umlomo wakho kabanzi, njengalapho uzamula. Asikho isidingo sokukhathazeka ngakho. Kodwa uma lo msindo uphuma njalo ngesikhathi semisebenzi evamile njengokudla noma ukukhuluma, kufanele ukhathazeke.
Kungani imilomo yethu yenza umsindo ongaka?
Kunezizathu eziningana ezingathinta lokhu. Cabanga ngomngane wakho eluma izinzipho zakhe njalo, noma ehlafuna ushungamu. Imikhuba enjalo ingabeka ingcindezi engadingekile esihlangwini somhlathi. Kukhona nezinye izizathu eziningana.
| Isizathu | Incazelo elula |
|---|---|
| Ukugaya amazinyo (i-Bruxism) | Ukugedla amazinyo akho kanzima, kungaba ngesikhathi ulele noma ungaqapheli. Lokhu kucindezela kakhulu imisipha yelunga lomhlathi. |
| Imikhuba emibi | Izinto ezifana nokuluma izinzipho njalo, amapeni okuhlafuna/amapensela emlonyeni, kanye nokuhlafuna itshungama ngokweqile. |
| Isifo samathambo | Isifo samathambo singathinta ilunga lomhlathi, njengamanye amalunga emzimbeni. |
| Izinkinga ngokuma kwezinyo (i-Malocclusion) | Uma amazinyo akho angenhla nangaphansi engahambisani kahle, kungacindezela umhlathi wakho. |
| Ukucindezeleka | Uma sicindezelekile, siqinisa imisipha ebusweni nasemhlathini ngokungazi. Lokhu futhi kuyisizathu salokhu. |
| Ingozi | Ingozi ebusweni noma emhlathini ingalimaza ilunga. |
| Amathonya avela ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane | Uma othile emndenini wakho eye waba nezinkinga ezihlobene ne-TMJ ezinjengalezi, kunethuba elincane lokuthi nawe uzoba nazo. |
Yini engenziwa ukwelapha lokhu?
Into engcono kakhulu ukuthi kukhona ukwelashwa kwalokhu. Ukwelashwa kuyahlukahluka kuye ngokuthi isimo sakho sibucayi kangakanani. Ukwelashwa kuhluka kusukela ekushintsheni indlela yokuphila elula kuya ekuhlinzweni uma kudingeka.
Izinto ezilula ongazenza ekhaya
Kunezinto ezimbalwa ongazizama ekhaya kuqala.
- Yeka imikhuba emibi: Yeka ukuluma izinzipho zakho, ukuhlafuna ushungamu, nokuhlafuna izinto ezinjengama-ice cubes.
- Nika umhlathi wakho ikhefu: Esikhundleni sokuhlanganisa amazinyo akho ndawonye emini, zijwayeze ukugcina isikhala esincane phakathi kwamazinyo akho ngokuvala izindebe zakho.
- Yidla ukudla okuthambile:Esikhundleni sokudla okuqinile nokunzima ukukuhlafuna (isib. i-cassava, ama-cashew aqoshiwe, inyama), gxila ekudleni okuthambile njengesobho, i-yogurt, nelayisi.
- Ukucindezela okubandayo nokushisayo: Uma kukhona ubuhlungu nokuvuvukala, faka ama-ice cubes asongwe ngendwangu cishe imizuzu eyi-10-15. Ukufaka ibhodlela lamanzi ashisayo ukuze ukhulule imisipha nakho kuhle.
- Ama-Painkiller: Uma ubuhlungu bukhulu kakhulu, ungakhuluma nodokotela wakho bese uthatha ama-painkiller njenge-NSAID.
Kunini lapho kudingeka khona ukwelashwa?
Uma ubuhlungu buqhubeka futhi amakhambi asekhaya engasizi, kufanele nakanjani ubonane nodokotela, ikakhulukazi udokotela wamazinyo.
| Indlela yokwelapha | Incazelo |
|---|---|
| Imithi | Udokotela angase akunikeze imithi yokulwa nokukhathazeka noma imithi yokuphumula imisipha. |
| Isivikelo Somlomo | Ukuze uyeke ukugaya amazinyo akho, udokotela wamazinyo uzoncoma isivikelo somlomo esikhethekile esenzelwe ukulingana nomlomo wakho. |
| Ukwelashwa Komzimba | Udokotela wezokwelapha uzokufundisa izivivinyo ezikhethekile kanye nokwelashwa okuqinisa futhi kuphumuze imisipha yelunga lomhlathi. |
| Ukwelashwa kwe-TENS | Ukukhuthazwa kwemizwa kagesi ye-Transcutaneous (TENS) kuyindlela yokuqeda ubuhlungu ngokuthumela izimpawu zikagesi ezisezingeni eliphansi esikhumbeni. Kubalulekile ukufuna iseluleko sezokwelapha ngaphambi kokwenza lokhu. |
| Ukwelashwa kwamazinyo | Uma imbangela iyinkinga ngokuma kwamazinyo, ukwelashwa okufana nemiqhele, amabhuloho, noma ama-braces kungadingeka. |
Ingabe ukuhlinzwa kuzodingeka?
Esikhathini esiningi, ukuhlinzwa akudingeki. Kodwa-ke, ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu lapho kungekho okunye ukwelashwa okuye kwasiza, ukuhlinzwa kunganconywa. Kunezinqubo zokuhlinzwa ezifana ne-`(Arthroscopy)` (ukukhipha uketshezi esilungwini), `(Arthroscopy)` (ukusebenzisa ikhamera ukwenza ukwelashwa ngokusikwa okuncane), kanye ne-`(Arthroplasty)` (ukulungisa noma ukufaka esikhundleni ilungwini). Lokhu kwenziwa odokotela abangochwepheshe.
Kufanele uye nini kudokotela?
Uma uzwa umsindo kuphela uma uphumule, akuyona into enkulu. Kodwa-ke, uma unezinye zezimpawu ezingezansi, kufanele nakanjani ubone udokotela.
- Ubuhlungu obuqhubekayo emhlathini.
- Ukungakwazi ukuvala umlomo ngokuphelele.
- Uma kukhona umsindo ohlabayo ovela ehhukwini njalo uma udla.
- Uma i-hook izwakala ibambeke endaweni eyodwa.
Kubaluleke kakhulu: Uma ngandlela-thile uthola isimo sokuminza lapho ungakwazi ukuvala umlomo wakho, ungalokothi uzame ukuzilungisa wena. Uma lokho kwenzeka, iya eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo (ETU) wesibhedlela ngokushesha.
Uma singelashwa, lesi simo singadala umonakalo ongapheli ku-cartilage namathambo esihlanganisi somhlathi. Ngakho-ke, kungcono ukufuna iseluleko sezokwelapha uma unezimpawu.
Umlayezo Wokuya Nawe Ekhaya
- Ukuqhekeka komhlathi kuvame ukuba uphawu lwe-temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD).
- Uma kungumsindo nje ongenabuhlungu, kungase kungabi yinto embi kakhulu. Kodwa uma kuhambisana nobuhlungu, khathazeka.
- Imikhuba emibi njengokuluma amazinyo nokuluma izinzipho kungalimaza umhlathi wakho. Gwema le mikhuba.
- Uma unezimpawu ezifana nobuhlungu bomhlathi noma ubunzima bokuvala umlomo wakho, bona udokotela noma udokotela wamazinyo ngokushesha.
- Ezimweni eziningi, lesi simo singalawulwa ngokwelashwa okulula kanye nokushintsha indlela yokuphila, ngakho ungesabi ngokungadingekile.
