Ingabe yithina kuphela, noma izingane zidla ama-spike fever ngoLwesihlanu kusihlwa, ilungile ngemva kokuba ihhovisi likadokotela wezingane livaliwe isonto lonke? Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi, ukubhekana nomkhuhlane wengane yakho kungaba yizinto ezikhathazayo, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi inezinyanga eziyisikhombisa ubudala noma iminyaka eyisikhombisa ubudala. Futhi kuba nengcindezi eyengeziwe uma sekuyisikhathi sokulala, futhi awunaso isiqiniseko sokuthi umvumele alale evaliwe...noma shayela isevisi yokuphendula bese ulinda ukushayelwa.
Ngakho-ke, ingabe kufanele uvumele ingane yakho ilale nomkhuhlane? Mhlawumbe, kusho uDkt. Sara Kopple we I-Westmed Medical Group eNew Rochelle, eNew York. Kodwa okokuqala, udinga ukuqonda ubukhulu bomkhuhlane futhi uqiniseke ukuthi uthatha izinyathelo zokuwulawula kahle.
Ake sibhekisise.
Ihlanganisani Imfiva?
Ngicabanga ukuthi lokhu kubadida kakhulu abazali, kusho uDkt. Kopple. 100.4 inombolo yami yegolide, uyeluleka ngenkathi evuma ukuthi ingane enomkhuhlane we-100.3 iseyimbangela yokukhathazeka, kuye ngeminyaka. Iphuzu elibalulekile: Ngokuvamile angikhathazeki lapho umzali engitshela ukuthi ingane yakhe inezinga lokushisa elingama-99-range—lokho kusabhekwa njengokujwayelekile.
Kulungile, Ngakho Iyiphi Indlela Engcono Kakhulu Yokuthatha Izinga Lokushisa Lengane?
Kunezinhlobo eziningi ezahlukene zamathemometha emakethe, ngisho nokuthola iphuzu ledatha kuyadida, uDkt. Kopple uyavuma. Weluleka ama-thermometer e-rectal ezinganeni, futhi aze angasakwazi ukubekezelela. Ezinganeni ezisacathula, uthanda izikena zesikhashana (ebunzini) noma ze-tympanic (indlebe) ngenxa yokusebenza kwazo. Angase anganembile kangako, kodwa ungathola ulwazi oluhle. Ezinganeni ezindala, uncoma ngaphansi kolimi kodwa uthi uma unenkinga yokuthola ingane yakho ukuthi ibambisane, izinga lokushisa lesikhashana, i-tympanic noma i-axillary (amakhwapha) nawo asebenza kahle.
Kufanele Ngishayele Nini Udokotela Wezingane Mayelana Nomkhuhlane?
UDkt. Kopple kusobala ukuthi lokhu kuncike ngempela eminyakeni yobudala yengane yakho kanye nendlela ebonakala ngayo kuwe, njengomzali wayo. Ngamanye amazwi, ingaphezu nje kwenombolo ku-thermometer. Ezinsaneni ezisanda kuzalwa (imvamisa izinyanga ezintathu nangaphansi) noma yini engaphezu kuka-100.4 idinga ucingo oluya kudokotela wezingane, futhi inyanga eyodwa kuya kwezimbili nangaphansi, uhambo oluya esibhedlela oluzenzakalelayo luyadingeka. Njengoba izingane zikhula kancane, noma imuphi umkhuhlane awudingi ukushayelwa ucingo ngokushesha kudokotela wezingane uma ngabe ingane isasebenza, ibukeka kahle, igcwele amanzi futhi ingenazo ezinye izimpawu nezimpawu. Uma ingane ingabonakali, ngisho nokushisa okuphansi kuyakhathaza. Kodwa ingane ebukeka kahle enomkhuhlane ophezulu ayinandaba kangako, ngokuvamile.
Kufanele Ngiyiphathe Kanjani Imfiva Yengane Yami?
Umgomo wokunciphisa umkhuhlane, njenge-Children's Acetaminophen (Tylenol) kanye ne-Ibuprofen (Motrin), empeleni umayelana nokunciphisa ukucindezeleka kwengane yakho nokwandisa ukunethezeka kwayo.
Umkhuhlane ngokwawo awunabungozi, uwukusabela komzimba ekuthelelekeni, futhi ukutheleleka ngokuvamile yikho okungase kube yingozi. Noma kunjalo, njengoba noma yimuphi umzali azi, imfiva ephezulu ingenza izingane lusizi, futhi uDkt. Kopple uthi kuhle kakhulu ukwelapha imfiva enjalo ukuze uthuthukise ukunethezeka. Ngithola abazali abaningi nabahlinzeki benovalo kakhulu mayelana nokwehlisa umkhuhlane ngokushesha okukhulu. Kepha uma kungumbuzo wokunethezeka, uthi, kulungile ukuphendukela ekhabetheni lemithi. Khumbula nje: Imfiva iyodwa enganeni ebonakala iphilile KAHLE. Imiphumela emibi abazali abayihlanganisa nemfiva—izinto ezinjengokuquleka—ihlobene kakhulu nesifo esiwumsuka noma ukutheleleka kunomkhuhlane ngokwawo.
Ngokuqondene nomthamo, iTylenol inganikezwa njalo ngamahora amane, kanti iMotrin njalo ngemva kwayisithupha. Futhi nakuba abanye abahlinzeki bencoma ukushintshanisa phakathi kwalokhu kokubili njalo ngemva kwamahora amathathu, abanye bacabanga ukuthi kungandisa ingozi yamaphutha emithi. Ngikhetha futhi amazinga okushisa aphuzwe ngaphambi kokuphathwa kwemithi ukuze ngiqiniseke ukuthi kusekhona umkhuhlane, kusho uDkt. Kopple.
Kuthiwani Ngobusuku? Ingabe Kufanele Ngivumele Ingane Yami Ilale Nemfiva?
UDkt. Kopple ucacile: Nakuba kuthusa futhi kukuncisha ubuthongo, imikhuhlane yaphakathi nobusuku ayihlukile kunaleyo evela emini. Futhi, umkhuhlane akusona isitha, yinqubo eyisisekelo. Iminyaka yobudala nomlando wezokwelapha, kunjalo, kuyabandakanyeka, kodwa ngaphandle kwalapho ingane yakho isanda kuzalwa, noma inezimo zezempilo ezicashile, kulungile ukuba ilale inomkhuhlane, uyavuma. Noma kunjalo, uma ingane yakho ilwa nomkhuhlane ngesikhathi sokulala, kunezinto ezinengqondo ongazenza, njengokunikeza umuthi (ngokwezikhathi ezingenhla nemithamo), lungisa izinga lokushisa legumbi futhi uyikhuthaze ukuthi ihlale imanzi.
Ngakho-ke, Uma Nginyonyoba Ekamelweni Lengane Yami Bese Ngiqaphela Isiphongo Esishisayo, Akufanele Ngibavuse?
Cishe cha! U-Kopple uthi: Futhi, uma bebonakala begula kakhulu, kuyindaba ehlukile, kodwa imfiva yaphakathi nobusuku enganeni ephile saka, ayidingi ukuba ivuswe ebusuku futhi ilethwe endaweni yokunakekelwa okuphuthumayo. noma ER. Okunye kungase kube okubaluleke kakhulu ekwelapheni kwabo.
OKUhlobene: NginguDokotela Wezingane, Yingakho Ngisekela Ukuvakasha Kwamahhovisi Ehhovisi, Ngisho Nangesikhathi Sobhubhane
