Kuvamile. Kodwa-ke, kunezingane ezithile ezidla njalo izinto ezingafanele ukudliwa. Lesi simo sisibiza ngokuthi i-Pica kwisayensi yezokwelapha. Lokhu kuyinto okufanele ikhathazeke ngayo kancane, ngoba ngezinye izikhathi lokhu kungabangela izinkinga ezahlukene zempilo enganeni.

Ziyini izimpawu zePica? Yini ngempela edliwa yingane?

Izingane ezine-pica zinesifiso esingavamile sokudla izinto ezingafanele ukudliwa. Isibonelo, ezinye izingane zidla izinto ezifana nalezi:

Inhlabathi, ubumba
Amatshe amancane
Iphepha
Ama-ice cubes (ngobuningi obukhulu)
Amapensela anemibala, izinti zoshokoledi
Izinwele zakho
Ama-chips okupenda odongeni
Indle (yebo, ngezinye izikhathi ngiyalingeka ukuba ngidle leyo nto)

Ungase umangale ukuzwa lokhu, kodwa lesi yisimo sangempela esingase senzeke ezinganeni. Into ebalulekile ukuqonda ukuthi lokhu akuyona into ingane eyenzayo ngamabomu.

Yiziphi izinkinga zempilo ezingabangelwa yi-Pica?

Izinkinga zempilo zinqunywa yilokho umntwana akudlayo. Kalula nje, izinkinga ziyavela lapho into engafanele ukudliwa ingena emzimbeni.

I-anemia yokuntuleka kwensimbi: Uma ezinye izingane zidla izinto ezifana nenhlabathi, kungaphazamisa ikhono lomzimba lokumunca insimbi . Lokhu kungaholela ekuntulekeni kwegazi, isimo lapho kukhona ukuntuleka kwegazi .
Ubuthi bomthofu : Lokhu kuyinto eyingozi kakhulu. Ezinye izinhlobo zopende ezazisetshenziswa esikhathini esidlule zingase zibe nomthofu. Ngakho-ke uma ingane idla izingcezu zopende odongeni oludala kangaka, lowo mthofu ungangena emzimbeni (ubuthi bomthofu) . Lokhu kuyingozi kakhulu ekukhuleni kobuchopho bengane kanye nesistimu yezinzwa.
Ukuqunjelwa noma isifo sohudo : Uma udla izinto ezifana nezinwele noma izingcezu zendwangu, azigayi kahle. Lokhu kungaholela ekuhluphekeni kwesisu, ukuqunjelwa, futhi ngezinye izikhathi isifo sohudo.
Ukutheleleka kwamathumbu: Uma udla izinto ezifana nenhlabathi nendle, amagciwane , izimuncagazi, noma izibungu ezikuwo zingangena esiswini sakho futhi zibangele ukutheleleka.
Ukuvaleka kwamathumbu: Ngezinye izikhathi, into edliwa yingane yakho ingabhajwa emathunjini, okubangela ukuvaleka. Lesi futhi yisimo esidinga ukwelashwa okuphuthumayo.
Ukulimala komlomo noma kwamazinyo: Ukudla amatshe amancane noma izinto ezibukhali kungabangela ukulimala emlonyeni, olimini, kanye namazinyo.

Yazi: Akuzona zonke lezi zinto ezenzeka kuzo zonke izingane. Kodwa-ke, kufanele sikhumbule ukuthi uma uke waba nazo (Pica), kukhona ingozi yokuthi lokhu kwenzeke.

Kungani lesi simo (i-Pica) senzeka? Yiziphi izimbangela?

Odokotela abakakwazi ukukhomba imbangela eqondile ye-pica, kodwa kunezinhlobo ezimbalwa zamaqembu angase abe nalesi simo:
Izingane ezinezinkinga zokukhula: Isibonelo, izingane ezine- autism noma ukukhubazeka kwengqondo zinamathuba amaningi okuthuthukisa i-pica.
Izinkinga zempilo yengqondo: I-Pica ingahlotshaniswa nezimo ezithile zempilo yengqondo, njenge -obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) noma i-schizophrenia .
Ukungondleki kahle noma indlala: Ngezinye izikhathi, lapho umzimba untula izakhamzimba, ikakhulukazi i-iron noma i-zinc, ungase uzizwe unesifiso sokudla izinto ezingajwayelekile ukuze uvale isikhala sokuntuleka kwazo. Kungenzeka futhi ukuthi ukudla ukudla okungafanele kukwenza uzizwe usuthi.
Ukucindezeleka: Lokhu futhi kuyinkinga ebaluleke kakhulu. Ikakhulukazi izingane ezivela emindenini ephila ebuphofwini, ezihlala ekhaya elimpofu, ezinganakwa, noma ezihlukunyezwa ngokomzimba noma ngokwengqondo zinamathuba amaningi okuthuthukisa i-Pica. Ezimweni ezinjalo, lokhu kungaba yindlela yazo yokukhulula ukucindezeleka nokucindezeleka.
I-Pica ivame ukubonwa ezinganeni ezincane nakwabesifazane abakhulelwe. Kubhekwa njengokujwayelekile ukuthi izingane zifake izinto emlonyeni wazo zize zibe neminyaka engaba ngu-2 ubudala. Ngakho-ke, uma ingane ineminyaka engaphezu kwemi-2 ubudala futhi ibilokhu idla ukudla okungafanele isikhathi esingaphezu kwenyanga, sisola ukuthi lesi yisimo esibizwa ngokuthi i-Pica. Ezimweni eziningi, lo mkhuba uyancipha njengoba izingane zikhula. Kodwa-ke, kulabo abanezinkinga zokukhula noma izinkinga zempilo yengqondo, lokhu kungaqhubeka njengenkinga kuze kube yilapho umuntu emdala.

Uma ingane ibilokhu idla ukudla okungenampilo okungenani inyanga yonke ilandelana.
Lokhu kuziphatha akuvamile ngokweminyaka yengane noma izinga lokukhula kwayo (ngishilo ngaphambilini ukuthi kuvamile ngezingane ezingaphansi kweminyaka emibili ukufaka izinto emlonyeni wazo).
Uma ingane inezici eziyingozi zokuthuthukisa i-Pica (isb., izinkinga zokukhula).
Ngaphezu kwalokho, udokotela angenza nezivivinyo ezifana nalezi:
Ukuhlolwa kwegazi ukuhlola ukuntuleka kwensimbi (i-anemia) noma ezinye izinkinga zokudla okunempilo.
Ukuhlolwa kwamazinga e-lead egazini.
Ukuhlolwa kwendle ukuhlola izimuncagazi .
Ama-X-ray noma ezinye izikrini ukuze kubonakale ukuthi ingane idlile yini noma ukuthi kunenkinga yini njengokuvaleka kwamathumbu.
Iphathwa kanjani i-Pica?
Ungakhathazeki ngalokhu. I-Pica iyisimo esingelapheka. Odokotela bangakusiza, njengabazali, ukulawula nokuyeka lokhu kuziphatha okuhlobene ne-Pica.

Iseluleko Sokudla Okunempilo: Uma ingane intula izakhamzimba njenge-iron noma i-zinc, ungayinika amaphilisi noma amasiraphu adingekayo. Ungayeluleka nangokudla okulinganiselayo.
Ukwelashwa Kokuziphatha: Ezinye izingane zingadinga usizo lukadokotela wengqondo noma omunye uchwepheshe wezempilo yengqondo . Zizokhuluma nengane futhi zizame ukushintsha ukuziphatha okungafanele ngezindlela ezahlukene.
Imithi: Ezimweni eziningi, lokhu kwelashwa kungalawula lesi simo. Kodwa-ke, kwezinye izimo ezinzima, ikakhulukazi uma kukhona enye inkinga yengqondo eyisisekelo (i-Pica), odokotela bangase banikeze nemithi.
Into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi ungazami ukuthola izixazululo zalokhu wedwa, kodwa funa iseluleko sezokwelapha.
Ezinye izinto ezibalulekile okufanele uzazi
Uma unezinsolo zokuthi ingane yakho ingase ibe ne-Pica, noma uma ubona noma yiziphi izimpawu ezikukhathazayo, sicela ukhulume nodokotela.
Uma ucabanga ukuthi ingane yakho idle into eyingozi, isibonelo upende, ibhethri, noma iphilisi, funa usizo lwezokwelapha ngokushesha. Ngaphandle kwalokho, eSri Lanka, ungashayela iNational Poisons Information Centre - 0112 686 143 ukuze uthole iseluleko.

Ukudla ukudla okungenampilo kungadala izinkinga zempilo, ngakho-ke akuwona umqondo omuhle ukungazinaki lezi zinto.
Kubalulekile ukufuna iseluleko sezokwelapha. Udokotela angenza ukuxilongwa okunembile futhi anikeze ukwelashwa neseluleko esidingekayo.
Ukunaka kwabazali, uthando, kanye nesiqondiso esifanele kubaluleke kakhulu ekulawuleni lesi simo.
Siyakwazisa ukukhathalela kwakho ingane yakho. Sithemba ukuthi lolu lwazi luzokusiza. Uma unemibuzo, sicela ungangabazi ukubuza udokotela.
