Ngingasithola isimungumungwane uma sengigonyiwe?

Kungenzeka, kodwa akunakwenzeka kakhulu. Umuthi wokugoma wesimungumungwane-mumps-rubella (MMR) oyinhlanganisela uwuchungechunge lwemithamo emibili evikela ngempumelelo kuwo womathathu amagciwane.

Eqinisweni, ngaphezu kwamaphesenti angama-93 abantu abathola umthamo wokuqala we-MMR baba nokungazweli kumvukuzane. Ngemuva komthamo wesibili, cishe amaphesenti angama-97 abantu avikelekile.

Umthamo wokuqala womgomo we-MMR unconyelwe izingane ezineminyaka eyizinyanga eziyi-12 kuya kweziyi-15. Umthamo wesibili utuswa ngaphambi kokuba ingane yakho iqale inkulisa noma ibanga lokuqala, eminyakeni engaba ngu-4 kuya kwengu-6. Nokho, uma kudingeka, umthamo wesibili unganikezwa ngokushesha ngemva kwamasonto amane ngemva komthamo wokuqala.

Ingane yakho ingase idinge umthamo wesibili isencane uma uhlela ukuya phesheya. Izinsana ezineminyaka eyizinyanga eziyisi-6 kuya kweziyi-11 kufanele zithole umthamo owodwa womgomo wesimungumungwane ngaphambi kokuba zihambe.

Umuthi wokugomela isimungumungwane-mumps-rubella-varicella (MMRV) ohlangene ungenye indlela yezingane ephinde ivikele kupokisi (varicella). Ishothi elilodwa elingasetshenziswa esikhundleni semithi yokugomela i-MMR neyenkukhu. Khuluma nodokotela wakho mayelana nezinketho zombili.

Uma usemusha noma umuntu omdala ongenaso isiqiniseko sokuthi ngabe ugonyelwe kahle yini isimungumungwane, khuluma nodokotela wakho. Ukuhlolwa kwegazi kungaqinisekisa uma ngabe usuvele unokugonywa emgomeni wangaphambilini.

Uma ukuhlolwa kukhombisa ukuthi awunawo ukuzivikela komzimba, futhi ungomusha noma umuntu omdala osemusha ohlala endlini yokulala, odokotela bakho cishe bazoncoma ukuthi uthole imithamo emibili yokugoma okungenani amasonto amane ngokuhlukana. Abantu abadala abangenawo ukuzivikela komzimba bayelulekwa ukuthi bathole okungenani umthamo owodwa womgomo we-MMR. Udokotela wakho angancoma ukuthi yini elungele isimo sakho ngasinye.
