Izifo Ezithathelwana Ngocansi (STIs) seziyinkinga yezempilo esabalele, okubalelwa ku-37.4 crore izifo ezintsha minyaka yonke, ngokusho kweWorld Health Organisation (WHO). Lokhu kuhlanganisa i-syphilis, i-STI yebhaktheriya ebangelwa i-Treponema pallidum. Ngeshwa, izifo eziningi ezine-syphilis azibonakali kahle noma azibonakali, okuholela ekubambezelekeni kokuxilongwa kanye nokwelashwa, okubuye kubangele ezinye izinkinga zempilo.

Sikhulume noDkt Rahul Agarwal, Umxhumanisi-Imithi Yangaphakathi, Izibhedlela ze-CARE, i-Hitech City, i-Hyderabad, ukuze sixoxe ngenkinga eyodwa enjalo ehlobene nesimiso sezinzwa.

Isakazeka Kanjani I-Syphilis?

I-Syphilis i-STI engasakazeka ngokuthintana ngokocansi okubandakanya ucansi lwesitho sangasese sowesifazane, sangemuva, noma somlomo, kusho uDkt Agarwal.

Kungasakazwa futhi lapho umuntu onaleli gciwane onogcunsula (esibizwa nangokuthi ama-chancres) ethintana eduze nesikhumba nomunye umuntu.

Ukwengeza, owesifazane okhulelwe onegciwane ujwayele ukudlulisela ukutheleleka ku-fetus. Eqinisweni, i-WHO iphakamisa ukuthi ukusuleleka kukagcunsula kusuka kumama kuya enganeni, okubuye kubizwe ngokuthi ugcunsula wokuzalwa, 'kungalimaza umbungu,' ikakhulukazi uma kungabonwa futhi kwelashwe ngokwanele ekuqaleni kokukhulelwa, okuholela ekuthwaleni umthwalo omkhulu wokugula nokufa.

Ngo-2016 kuphela, i-WHO yalinganisela isibalo sabantu abangu-6.61 lakh isibalo sabantu abazalwa ne-syphilis emhlabeni jikelele, okuhlanganisa ukufa kwengane yokuqala engu-1.43 lakh kanye nokubeletha, ukufa kwezingane ezisanda kuzalwa ezingu-61,000, izingane ezizalwa ngaphambi kwesikhathi noma ezinesisindo esiphansi ezingu-41,000 kanye nezinsana ezingu-1.09 lakh ezinogcunsula emtholampilo.

I-Syphilis Engelashiwe Ingabangela Izinkinga

NgokukaDkt Agarwal, uma i-syphilis ingelashwa ngezigaba zokuqala, ingabangela izinkinga ezinzima ezithinta umzimba. Lezi zinkinga zihlanganisa:

• Ukwanda kwengozi yokutheleleka nge-Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
• I-Gummatous syphilis ibangela ukukhula okufana nesimila ezithweni ezahlukene, ezithambile ngokwemvelo; lezi zingakhomba isikhumba, amathambo, ubuchopho, noma isibindi.
• Kwabesifazane abakhulelwe, kungase kubangele ukubeletha, ukuzala ngaphambi kwesikhathi, nezinye izinkinga zokuzalwa.
• I-Neurosyphilis ingabangela ingozi enkulu ohlelweni lwezinzwa, okungase kubangele ukushaywa unhlangothi, ukuwohloka komqondo, izimpawu zengqondo, ukungezwa, nokunye.

Iyini I-Neurosyphilis?

I-Neurosyphilis ibhekisela ekuthelelekeni okuhilela i-Central Nervous System (CNS) futhi ngokuvamile kwenzeka kubantu abaye bashiya ugcunsula iminyaka bengalashwa, kusho uDkt Agarwal.

Ngokukadokotela, lokhu kuthinta kakhulu ubuchopho nomgogodla, okwandisa ingozi yemiphumela emibi njenge-meningitis, unhlangothi, noma ukukhubazeka.

Izimpawu ezivamile ze-syphilis zihlanganisa:

• Isilonda esingakhula endaweni yakho yegroyne, emlonyeni, noma ezindebeni
• Ukuqubuka, okungenzeka kungalunywa
• Fever
• Ukukhathala
• Umphimbo obuhlungu
• Ukukhishwa okungajwayelekile kwesitho sangasese sowesifazane

Izimpawu ze-neurosyphilis zihlanganisa:

• Ukuphazamiseka kwemizwa njengokucasuka
• Izinguquko zomuntu
• Izinguquko emikhubeni yokulala
• Ukukhohlwa
• Ukukhubazeka kwenkumbulo nokwahlulela
• Ukudideka
• Iziphambeko
• ukuquleka

Izinketho zokwelapha

Ukwelashwa kwe-syphilis kuncike esigabeni sokutheleleka, kusho uDkt Agarwal.

Uyanezela, “Ngokuyinhloko ingelashwa ngokusebenzisa ama-antibiotics afana ne-benzathine penicillin G, enikezwa ngomjovo. Izigaba zakamuva zogcunsula zizodinga inkambo ende yemithi elwa namagciwane noma eminye imithi, kuye ngokuthi igciwane lingakanani kanye nemiphumela yalo.”

Ekugwemeni I-Syphilis kanye nezinye izifo ezithathelwana ngocansi

Ezinye zezindlela eziphumelela kakhulu zokuvikela ugcunsula noma ezinye izifo zocansi zihlanganisa:

• Ukuzijwayeza ucansi oluphephile ngokusebenzisa amakhondomu, amakhondomu, namadamu amazinyo
• Ukuhlolwa njalo impilo yezocansi noma ukuhlolwa okwenziwa uchwepheshe wezokwelapha
• Ukufuna usizo lwezokwelapha ngokushesha nganoma yiziphi izimpawu ezihlobene ne-syphilis
• Ukuqeda ukwelashwa kwakho kanye nesilinganiso esinqunyiwe sokutheleleka
• Ukuxhumana nomlingani wakho ocansini futhi uphakamise ukuthi uhlolwe ngaphambi kwanoma yikuphi ukutheleleka

Isiphetho

I-syphilis yisimo esisakazeka ngokuthintana nocansi. Kungaholela ezimpawu, kepha eziningi zihlala zingenazimpawu iminyaka, okuholela ekubambezelekeni kokuxilongwa nokwelashwa. I-syphilis engelashiwe ingaholela ezinkingeni, kuhlanganise neurosyphilis, ethinta i-CNS futhi ibangele izinkinga zemizwa. Lesi yisimo esingase sibeke impilo engozini, futhi umuntu kufanele athathe zonke izinyathelo zokuzivikela ngokumelene naso.
