Kupewa Khansa Yam'mimba

by Lynne Eldridge, MD

Kodi Muyenera Kudziwa Zotani Zokhudza Kupewa Kachilombo?

Kupewa khansa ya m'magazi ndi nkhani yaikulu kuyambira khansa ya m'mapapo ndiyomwe imayambitsa matenda a khansa pakati pa amuna ndi akazi padziko lonse lapansi. Zikuyesa kuti 90 peresenti ya khansa ya m'mapapo ikhoza kutetezedwa kudzera kuchitapo kanthu ndi kuzindikira.

Kusuta kumabweretsa ambiri amapepala a mapapu otetezeka, koma osakhala fodya angathe kuthandizira kuchepetsa chiopsezo chawo. Amodzi mwa akazi asanu omwe amakhala ndi kansa ya m'mapapo sakhala akusuta, ndipo khansa ya m'mapapo imakula makamaka kwa amayi osasuta.

Amene adapezeka kale ndi khansara yamapapo sayenera kukhumudwa. Pali zinthu zomwe mungadzipangire nokha kuti mupulumuke .

Kusuta Fodya

Kusuta ndikochititsa 85 peresenti ya khansa ya m'mapapo ku United States, ngakhale n'kofunika kuzindikira kuti anthu ambiri amene amayamba khansa yamapapo lero ndi osuta fodya, osati osuta. Kusiya kusuta nthawi iliyonse kungachepetse chiopsezo cha khansa ya m'mapapo, ndipo zikuwoneka kuti chiwonjezere kupulumuka kwa anthu omwe ali ndi khansara yamapapo .

Kusuta ndi Khansa Yam'mimba

Radon Chiwonetsero

Kuonekera kwa radon m'nyumba ndiko yachiwiri chifukwa chachikulu cha khansa ya m'mapapo, ndipo chiwerengero chimodzi mwa osasuta . Radoni ndi mpweya wosaoneka womwe umachokera ku radium m'nthaka. Ma kitsulo otsika mtengo amapezeka pa malo osungirako zipangizo zamakono ndipo ayenera kuikidwa pamalo ochepetsetsa a pakhomo. Ngati zotsatirazo si zachilendo, Environmental Protection Agency ikhoza kuthandizira kuthetsa vutoli.

Utsi wa Secondhand

Kuwonetsa utsi wachiwiri kumawonjezera chiopsezo cha khansa ya m'mapapo mwa osuta fodya awiri kapena atatu.

Utsi Wachiwiri ndi Khansa Yam'mimba

Asbesitosi

Kupeza malo a asbestos kumawonjezera chiopsezo cha khansa ya m'mapapo, ndipo kuphatikizapo kusuta chiwopsezo kumawonekera.

Olemba ntchito ayenera kukhala ndi ndondomeko zotetezeka kwa iwo omwe akuwonekera. Nyumba zomangidwa kumayambiriro kwa 1970 zitha kukhala ndi kusungunula kwa asibesitosi . Kusiyidwa nokha, kukhudzidwa uku sikukudetsa nkhaŵa, koma kampani yomwe ikuvomerezeka kugwira ntchito ndi asibesitoti iyenera kuyanjanitsidwa pakusintha.

Asbesitosi ndi Khansa

Zachilengedwe ndi Ntchito Zogwira Ntchito

Mankhwala ambiri ogwiritsidwa ntchito m'mafakitale ndi m'madera oyandikana nawo angawonjezere chiopsezo cha khansa ya m'mapapo. Malemba pa zinthu zapakhomo monga zojambula nkhuni, ndi Zipangizo Zopezera Zopezera Zopereka zoperekedwa ndi olemba ntchito, amapereka zowonjezera zowonjezera ndi masks abwino omwe angagwiritse ntchito kuchepetsa kuwonetsa.

Kudya ndi Kuchita Zochita

Zakudya zabwino ndi zochita zolimbitsa thupi zimathandiza kwambiri pakapopseza khansa yamapapo.

Genetics ndi khansa ya m'mimba

Simungasinthe ma genetic, koma pali zina zomwe mungachite kuti muchepetse chiopsezo chanu, ngakhale mutakhala ndi chibadwa cha khansa ya m'mapapo. Kukhala ndi mbiri ya banja kumayambitsa ngozi, ndi omwe ali ndi chiwerengero choyamba chokhala ndi chiopsezo chachiŵiri chokhala ndi matendawa. Tsopano kuti tili ndi chida chowonetsera mapapo, omwe ali ndi mbiri yakale ya banja ayenera kukambirana ndi madokotala awo.

Kuwonjezera pamenepo, kukhala ndi mbiri ya banja kungakhale kowonjezera kowonjezera koyenera kukhala osamala ndi zifukwa zina zoopsa. Mwachitsanzo, amayi omwe ali ndi "khansa ya m'mawere" ( BRCA2) ali ndi chiopsezo chachikulu cha khansa ya m'mapapo ngati amasuta.

Khansara Yam'mimba M'malo Osasuta

Ndikofunika kuti muzindikire kuti, kuwonjezera pa khansa ya m'mapapo yomwe imakhala yowonjezereka kwa anthu omwe kale amasuta fodya kusiyana ndi omwe akusuta, khansa ya m'mapapo imapezeka mwa anthu omwe sanasute fodya. Kumbukirani kuti aliyense amene ali ndi mapapo akhoza kutenga khansa ya m'mapapo.

Phunzirani zambiri zokhudza Kupewa Kansalu

Nkhaniyi ikuyamba kukhudza zina mwazifukwa za khansa ya m'mapapo.

Kwa omwe akufuna kuphunzira za zifukwa zina, komanso zinthu zina zomwe mungachite kuti muchepetse chiopsezo chanu, onani izi:
