Maulang Umaga TSUians!

🦠🌧 GABAY SA LEPTOSPIROSIS 🌧🦠
Paalaala mula sa TSU Medical Unit

Ngayong tag-ulan, mas mataas ang panganib ng Leptospirosis — isang sakit na dulot ng bacteria na Leptospira na makukuha sa contact sa baha o ihi ng daga at iba pang hayop.

🩺 Mga Sintomas na Dapat Bantayan:
✔ Lagnat
✔ Mapulang mata
✔ Hirap umihi
✔ Masakit ang tiyan, kalamnan, at ulo

⚠ Mga Posibleng Komplikasyon:
❗ Pagpalya ng kidney
❗ Pagdurugo ng baga
❗ Pagkamatay

🛡 Paano Maiiwasan:
🚫 Iwasang lumusong o maglaro sa baha
🥾 Magsuot ng bota o gloves tuwing tag-ulan
🏠 Panatilihing malinis ang bahay at kapaligiran

💊 Kung hindi maiwasang lumusong sa baha:
Maaaring uminom ng Doxycycline bilang prophylaxis (gamot na pang-iwas) depende sa exposure. Kumonsulta muna sa inyong health care provider para sa tamang dosage.

🚫 Paalala: Hindi pinapayagang uminom ng Doxycycline ang mga buntis, mga ina na nagpapadede, mga batang 8 taong gulang pababa, at mga may allergy sa gamot na ito.

Panghuling Paalala:
Ang kalusugan ay ating responsibilidad. Sa panahong madalas ang pag-ulan at pagbaha, huwag maging kampante. Simple lang ang mga hakbang upang makaiwas sa leptospirosis, pero malaki ang maitutulong nito para mapanatili ang ating kaligtasan.
