Ubuhlungu Bemetatarsalgia

I-Metatarsalgia (met-uh-tahr-SAL-juh) kuyisimo lapho ibhola lezinyawo zakho liba buhlungu futhi liqale. Ungase uthole uma uhlanganyela emisebenzini ehilela ukugijima nokuqhuma. Kunezinye izimbangela futhi, kufaka phakathi ukukhubazeka kwezinyawo nezicathulo eziqine kakhulu noma eziqondile kakhulu.

Nakuba ngokuvamile kungelona isimo esinzima, i-metatarsalgia ingakusiza. Ngenhlanhla, ukwelashwa ekhaya, njengeqhwa nokuphumula, kuvame ukukhulula izimpawu. Ukugqoka izicathulo ezifanele ngama-insoles okuqeda umsindo noma ukusekela umqhele kungavimbela noma kunciphisa izinkinga zesikhathi esizayo nge-metatarsalgia.

Izimpawu ze-metatarsalgia zingafaka:

• Ubuhlungu obukhulu, obuhlungu noma obushisayo emboleni yeqanda lakho — ingxenye yesole nje ngemuva kweminwe yakho
• Ubuhlungu obukhula uma ukuma, ugijima, ugoqa izinyawo zakho noma uhamba — ikakhulukazi ungenamathanga phezu komphetho oluqine — futhi buthuthuka uma ukhululeka
• Ubuhlungu obukhulu noma obukhulu, ukungabi namqondo, noma ukugqolozela eminweni yakho
• Ukuzwa sengathi uneqanda esikhwameni sakho

Akuzona zonke izinkinga zezinyawo ezidinga ukunakekelwa kwezokwelapha. Ngezinye izikhathi izinyawo zakho zibuhlungu ngemva kosuku olude lokumisa noma ukuqeqeshwa okunzima. Kodwa kungcono ukungaziphathi kalula ubuhlungu bezinyawo obuhlala isikhathi esingaphezu kwezinsuku ezimbalwa. Xoxa nodokotela wakho uma unebuhlungu obuvuthayo emboleni yenyawo lakho olungathuthuki ngemva kokushintsha izicathulo zakho nokuguqula imisebenzi yakho.

Ngesinye isikhathi, into eyodwa kuphela engabangela i-metatarsalgia. Zimbi izikhathi, izinto eziningi ezihilelekile, kufaka phakathi:

• Ukuqeqeshwa noma umsebenzi onzima. Abagijimi bezingamakhulu amakhilomitha baphazanyiswa yi-metatarsalgia, ikakhulukazi ngoba ingxenye yangaphambili yeqanda lithatha amandla amakhulu lapho umuntu egijima. Kodwa noma ubani ohileleka emidlalweni enamandla amakhulu ukhona engozini, ikakhulu uma izicathulo zakho zingafanele noma zidiliziwe.
• Izimo ezithile zezinyawo. Ukuqina okukhulu kungafaka uxinzelelo olwengeziwe kuma-metatarsals. Lokho kungenzeka futhi uma unomunwe wesibili omude kunomunwe omkhulu, okubangela ukuba isisindo esiningi kunokujwayelekile sithuthukiswe ekhanda le-metatarsal yesibili.
• Ukuphazamiseka kwezinyawo. Ukugqoka izicathulo ezincane kakhulu noma izicathulo eziphezulu kungabangela ukuba iqanda lakho libe libi. Umunwe oqondile phansi (i-hammertoe) nama-bumps abuvuzayo, obuhlungu ekuqaleni kwama-toes akho amakhulu (ama-bunions) angabangela i-metatarsalgia.
• Isisindo esiningi. Ngenxa yokuthi iningi lesisindo somzimba wakho lidlulisela ezingxenyeni zakho zangaphambili lapho uhamba, amasentimitha engeziwe asho uxinzelelo olwengeziwe kuma-metatarsals akho. Ukulahlekelwa isisindo kunganciphisa noma kususe izimpawu.
• Izicathulo ezingafanele kahle. Izicathulo eziphezulu, ezidlulisela isisindo esengeziwe ezingxenyeni zangaphambili zeqanda, yimbangela evamile ye-metatarsalgia kwabesifazane. Izicathulo ezine-toe box ecinyiwe noma izicathulo zezemidlalo ezingenayo ukusekelwa nokugcwaliswa zingase futhi zifake isandla kule nkinga.
• Ukweqa amathambo. Ukweqa okuncane kuma-metatarsals noma amathambo omnwe kungaba buhlungu futhi kushintshe indlela osibeka ngayo isisindo eqandeni lakho.
• I-neuroma kaMorton. Lokhu kukhula okungekho umdlavuza we-fibrous tissue eduze komthambo kuvame ukwenzeka phakathi kwamakhanda e-metatarsal yesithathu neyesine. Kubangela izimpawu ezifana ne-metatarsalgia futhi kungase futhi kufake isandla ekucindezelweni kwe-metatarsal.

Cishe noma ubani angaba ne-metatarsalgia, kodwa unesikhathi esiningi sokuthola uma:

• Udlala imidlalo enomthelela omkhulu ebandakanya ukugijima nokuqhuma
• Ugqoka izicathulo eziphezulu, izicathulo ezingafanele kahle noma izicathulo ezinamaphiko, njengezikhali
• Unesisindo esingaphezulu noma unesifo sikashukela
• Unezinye izinkinga zezinyawo, kufaka phakathi i-hammertoe kanye nama-calluses ngaphansi kwezinyawo zakho
• Une-arthritis yokuqabula, njenge-rheumatoid arthritis noma i-gout

Uma ingalashwa, i-metatarsalgia ingabangela ubuhlungu ezingxenyeni zezinyawo ezifanayo noma eziphambene kanye nobuhlungu kwenye ingxenye yomzimba, njengoba kungenzeka emathangeni noma emadolweni, ngenxa yokukhuza (ukuhamba okuguqukile) okuvela ebuhlungwini beenyawo.

Izinkinga ezahlukene zezinyawo zingabangela izimpawu ezifanayo nalezo ze-metatarsalgia. Ukuze usize ukuthola umthombo wobuhlungu bakho, udokotela wakho uzohlola unyawo lwakho ngenkathi umi futhi ngenkathi uhleli bese ubuza ngendlela yokuphila kanye nomazinga wemisebenzi yakho. Ungase udinga i-X-ray ukuze ubone noma ukhanyise ukwehluleka kokucindezela noma ezinye izinkinga zezinyawo.

Izindlela zokwelapha ezingathuthuki - njengokuphumula, ukushintsha izicathulo noma ukusebenzisa i-metatarsal pad - kungaba yikho konke okudingayo ukuqeda izimpawu nezibonakaliso.Kwezinye izikhathi ezingavamile, uma izindlela zokwelapha ezingathuthuki zingakusizi ubuhlungu bakho futhi i-metatarsalgia yakho iyingozi yizimo zezinyawo ezinjenge-hammertoe, ukuhlinzwa kokulungisa amathambo e-metatarsal kungaba yindlela yokwelapha.

Ukuze usize ukunciphisa ubuhlungu bakho be-metatarsalgia, zama lezi zeluleko:

• Phumula. Vikela unyawo lwakho ekwenzakaleni okwengeziwe ngokungaluqinezi. Phakamisa unyawo lwakho ngemva kokuma noma ukuhamba. Kungase kudingeke uqale umdlalo wakho owuthandayo isikhathi esithile, kodwa ungagcina ukhulu ngezikolo ezingathinti lutho, njengokubhukuda noma ukuqhubela ibhayisikili.
• Beka iqhwa endaweni ebuhlungu. Faka ama-ice packs endaweni ebuhlungu cishe imizuzu engama-20 ngesikhathi izikhathi eziningi ngosuku. Ukuvikela isikhumba sakho, yenza ama-ice packs ngitawula elincane.
• Thatha umunci wezinhlungu ongatholakali ngaphandle kwelayisensi. Zama i-ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, nabanye), i-naproxen sodium (Aleve) noma i-aspirin ukunciphisa ubuhlungu nokuvuvukala.
• Gqoka izicathulo ezifanele. Gwema izicathulo eziqinile noma eziqondile futhi ubeke umkhawulo ekugqokeni izicathulo eziphezulu. Gqoka izicathulo ezifanele imidlalo oyidlala.
• Sebenzisa ama-metatarsal pads. La ma-pads atholakala kalula abekwa ezicathulweni zakho ngaphambi kwamathambo e-metatarsal ukuze asize ekuqedeni ukucindezela endaweni ebuhlungu.
• Cabanga ngokusekela umqhele. Uma ama-insoles angakusizi, udokotela wakho angase akukhuthaze ukusekela umqhele ukuze unciphise ukucindezela emathanjeni e-metatarsal futhi uthuthukise ukusebenza kwenyawo. Ungathenga ukusekela umqhele ngaphandle kwelayisensi, noma kungase kufakwe ngokwezifiso.
