Ingabe kufanele ufune iseluleko kuma-insoles nezicathulo ezivela kumuntu we-podiatrist noma i-pedorthist?
Isikhathi sini ukubona isikhulu samaphoyisa mayelana nezinkinga zonyawo zakho? Uma uqobo, mhlawumbe uqale wazama ukuthola ukuphumula ezinyaweni zakho ngezinyawo. Abanye abantu base bevakashela isitolo esinomuntu ohamba phambili ukuze uthole ukufaneleka kwesihlangu esikhwameni nesinconywa se-insole. Ama-podiatristi amathathu aphawula ngokulinganiselwa kwalezi zindlela futhi uma kungcono ukubona isazi se-podiatrist esikhundleni.
Ama-Podiatrists vs. Pedorthists
Ama-podiatrists asebenza ngokwemithi futhi ahlinzekwe ngokucophelela ukuze aphathe izinkinga zonyawo nezinyawo. Bangakwazi ukunikeza imithi, ukwelashwa nokuhlinzwa. Imfundo yabo ihlanganisa iminyaka emine yezikole zezokwelapha zezempilo kanye neminyaka emithathu yokuqeqeshwa kokuhlala esibhedlela. I-podiatrist ingasebenzisa igama elithi DPM (udokotela wemithi ye-podiatric). Abaningi nabo banesiqiniseko sebhodi futhi bangaqedela ukuhlanganyela okuqhubekayo ukuze bazikhethele ezindaweni zokusebenza.
I-pedorthist iyinhlangano yezempilo ehlangene. Abadingeki ukuba babe nemfundo yasekolishi. Ukuqeqeshwa kwabo kuyingxenye ekhethekile yezicathulo ezifanelekayo, ukwakhiwa komzimba kanye nokwakhiwa kwezimpaphe, nokwakhiwa kwezicathulo nokuguqulwa. Lokhu kuqeqeshwa kungenziwa kumasayithi avunyelwe futhi kungenziwa kwikhompyutha nakumuntu. Bese beqeda amahora angu-1 000 okuhlangenwe nakho okusebenzayo ukuze bafanele ukuthatha ukuhlolwa kwesitifiketi. Uma sebedlule ukuhlolwa, bahamba nge-pedorthist (C.Ped) eqinisekisiwe.
Amanye amazwe adinga ilayisensi ukuba ayenze njenge-pedorthist eqinisekisiwe.
Ama-podiatrists enikeza imibono yabo yi:
- UDkt. Brian Harley, uMphathi wePodiatry, i-Wellstar Windy Hill Hospital, iMarietta, Georgia
- UDkt. Lisa Klemeyer we-Family Aesthetic & Podiatry eSarasota, eFlorida
- UDkt Andrew J. Schneider, ochwepheshe bezinyawo zeTanglewood
Izimpawu Ezidinga I-Podiatrist
Ama-podiatrists aqaphele ukuthi ungathola kuphela ukuxilongwa kwangempela kwembangela yenkinga yakho yonyawo ngokubona isazi sephodi noma udokotela. Ngenkathi i-insoles kanye nezinguquko ezicathulweni zakho zingasiza, lokhu kuhle kakhulu emva kokuhlolwa nguchwepheshe wezokwelapha. Ezinye izimpawu ezifisa ukubona i-podiatrist zihlanganisa:
- Ubungqingili, ukugubha, noma ukushisa ezinyaweni noma ezinzwaneni zakho
- Ukulimala okunzima ngokuvuvukala, ukulimaza, noma ubuhlungu obungakazelelwe
- Ubuhlungu okungaphezu kwesonto
- Ukulahlekelwa komsebenzi
I-podiatrist izosebenzisa i-X ray, i-ultrasound, nezinye izindlela ukuze zihlolwe inkinga. I-podiatrist iyakwazi ukuhlola izimbangela ezibangela ubuhlungu nokukhathazeka ukuthi izicathulo futhi ezifaka yedwa azikwazi ukuphatha. Isibonelo, ukuphazamiseka nokugubha kungabangwa ngenxa yesifo sikashukela se-peripheral neuropathy, okungase kube isibonakaliso sokuqala sesifo sikashukela esingatholakali. I-podiatrist ingabhekisela ezinkingeni ezinjalo kwabanye odokotela noma ingase ibe ngokukhethekile ekuphatheni izinkinga zonyawo zesifo sikashukela.
Ngezinkinga eziningi zamathambo, isazi samaphoyisa singakwazi ukuhlinzekela imithi, ukuhlinzeka ngamagciwane, ukubeka amadivaysi angokwezifiso zomzimba , futhi, uma kunesidingo, ukwenza ukuhlinzwa.
Ukusebenzisa i-Pedorthist
Ama-pedorthists awavunyelwe ukuhlola izinkinga ezimbi, kodwa abanamakhono ekuncoma izicathulo nama-insoles.
U-pedorthist angabonisana uma kunomphefumulo noma ubuhlungu obuphikisayo lapho ehamba noma egijima, ngokusho kukaDkt. Schneider. "I-pedorthist uzobe esesimweni esihle sokuncoma isihlangu, ukufaka, noma ukuhlanganiswa ukuze kuthuthukiswe umthamo, ukuphumelela kwezinyawo, futhi kunciphise izinga lobuhlungu."
Ama-podiatrists athi angathumela isiguli ku-pedorthist ngemuva kokuthola isimo esingaphathwa ngokuguqulwa kwesicathulo noma ama-braces. Kodwa bathi kungcono uma umuntu ohamba ngezinyawo esebenza kanye nodokotela wezinkondlo.
Ukuvakashelwa kwesigqoko sokugqoka noma isitolo sesolezi kungabi nenani. Nazi ezinye zezimo ezivezwe yizi-podiatrists:
- Ukuze uthole isincomo sesithuthuthu lokhu kuzokwandisa ukuphumelela kwesimo somzimba esiyinkambiso esinqunywe isazi samaphoyisa
- Ukuze uthole ukuhlaziywa kwezinyawo nokuncoma kokusekelwa kwe-arch over-the-counter noma i-insole
- Ukuze ube ne-insole yangokwezifiso ekhishwe ukusekela unyawo lwakho ngendlela efanele, okungase kuhlanganise ukukhipha nokubunjwa
- Ukuze ube nomuthi we-podiatric ogcwaliswe izicathulo zokwelashwa zesifo sikashukela nokufaka izindawo zokuhlala, izicathulo zesiko, nokushintshwa kwesiko ngezicathulo
- Lapho sifuna izicathulo zezinkinga ezithile ezifana nezinyawo eziphambene , izingalo ezibuhlungu, izithende ezibuhlungu, izibhamu, izintambo, isifo sikashukela, nesifo samathambo
UDkt.................................................. "Ngama-orthotics nama-braces, uthola lokho okukhokhayo. Awutholi kuphela umkhiqizo wekhwalithi, kodwa ukuqeqeshwa ngemuva kwakho okuvumela ukuthi umuntu ohamba ngezinyawo ahlolisise inkinga, anqume ukuthi yiziphi izinto ezidingekayo, futhi azenzele ukufaka kahle."
