Umdlavuza Wamaphaphu: Izimpawu, Ukuxilongwa Nezinketho Zokwelashwa

Ngokocwaningo lwakamuva, umdlavuza wamaphaphu uwumdlavuza ovame kakhulu emhlabeni. Ungowesibili umdlavuza ovame kakhulu emadodeni futhi uyimbangela ehamba phambili yokufa okuhlobene nomdlavuza (emadodeni) ezweni lakithi. Nakuba ukubhema kungenye yezinto eziyingozi enkulu ekuthuthukisweni komdlavuza wamaphaphu, abangabhemi nababhemayo bayaziwa futhi ngokuthuthukisa lesi simo. Izinhlobo ezimbili eziyinhloko zomdlavuza wamaphaphu umdlavuza wamaphaphu omncane (SCLC) kanye nomdlavuza wamaphaphu ongewona omncane (NSCLC).

Umdlavuza wamaphaphu uvame ukungabikwa ezigabeni zokuqala okwenza ukwelashwa kube nzima kakhulu njengoba kuvame ukusabalala kwezinye izingxenye zomzimba njengoba isifo siqhubeka. Lokhu kwenza kubaluleke kakhulu ukuqonda izimpawu nokwelashwa komdlavuza wamaphaphu izinketho.

Izimpawu zokuqala zomdlavuza wamaphaphu

Iziguli eziningi azibonisi izimpawu nezimpawu ezibalulekile zomdlavuza wamaphaphu ngesikhathi sokuqala. Nokho, kungase kube nezimpawu eziyisixwayiso. Lokhu kubandakanya -

• Ukukhwehlela okungapheli okungapheli evikini elilodwa noma amabili. Kubalulekile ukuthintana nodokotela uma ukukhwehlela kudlula amasonto amabili noma kuba kubi kakhulu. Ukukhwehlela kungase kuhambisane noma kungahambisani ne-phlegm. I-phlegm enegazi kuwuphawu oluqinisekile oluyisixwayiso.

• Umdlavuza wamaphaphu uvame ukuhambisana nokuphelelwa umoya noma ukuguquka kwendlela yokuphefumula (ukuhefuzela njll.). Uma ungumuntu obhemayo futhi uphelelwa umoya kalula, kubalulekile ukubonana nodokotela.

• Qaphela ubuhlungu esifundeni sesifuba. Lokhu kungase kube okuphakathi futhi kufiphele noma kubukhali futhi kungapheli kodwa noma ibuphi ubuhlungu endaweni yesifuba kufanele buhlolwe ngudokotela. Ubuhlungu bungakhula kakhulu uma uhleka, ukhwehlela, noma udonsa umoya.

• Ukuhayiza okuqhubekayo noma ukushintsha kwezwi kungolunye uphawu oluyisixwayiso okungafanele lushaywe indiva, ikakhulukazi uma ungumuntu obhemayo. Uma isimila esiyingozi sephaphu sithinta imizwa exhunywe kumphimbo, singase sibangele ukuhosha kwezwi.

• Njengazo zonke ezinye izinhlobo zomdlavuza, ubuthakathaka obukhulu nokukhathala nakho kuyizimpawu eziyisixwayiso zomdlavuza wamaphaphu. Lokhu kuvame ukuhambisana nokuncipha kwesisindo esingavamile kanye nokuntula isifiso sokudla.

Izinketho Zokuhlonza Nokwelashwa

Ukuxilongwa komdlavuza wamaphaphu kufezwa ngenhlanganisela yezinqubo zokuxilonga ezifana ne-X-ray, i-CT scan, ne-MRI. Kwezinye izimo, kungase kudingeke i-lung biopsy. Inani elincane lezicubu zamaphaphu likhishwa esibhedlela samaphaphu e-Hyderabad futhi lihlolwe ngesibonakhulu. I-biopsy ingenziwa nge-bronchoscopy, i-liquid biopsy, noma i-need biopsy.

Ezinye zezindlela zokwelapha ezijwayelekile ezinconyelwe umdlavuza wamaphaphu zihlanganisa ukuhlinzwa, i-chemotherapy, kanye nemisebe.

Ukuvimbela umdlavuza wamaphaphu kulula kakhulu, uma kubhekwa izinkinga zokwelashwa. Uma ungumuntu obhemayo njalo, kungcono kakhulu ukufuna usizo lukadokotela ekuyekeni ukubhema. Ukunciphisa ukuchayeka entuthuni kagwayi kanye namazinga aphezulu okungcola kuyasiza.
