Pika
ʻO Pica kahi hiʻohiʻona o ka ʻai ʻana i nā mea ʻai ʻole, e like me ka lepo a pepa paha.
ʻIke ʻia ʻo Pica i nā keiki ʻōpio ma mua o nā mākua. Aia i ka hapakolu o nā keiki mai 1 a 6 mau makahiki i loaʻa i kēia ʻano hana ʻai. ʻAʻole maopopo i ka nui o nā keiki me ka pica e hoʻopau pono i ka lepo (geophagy).
Hiki i ka Pica ke hana i ka wā hāpai. I kekahi mau hihia, ʻo ka nele o kekahi mau mea momona, e like me ka hao a me ka zinc, hiki ke hoʻāla i nā kuko ʻokoʻa. Hiki paha i ka Pica i nā mākua ke makemake i kahi ʻano i ko lākou waha.
ʻAi paha nā keiki a me nā mākua me ka pica:
- Nā holoholona holoholona
- Pālolo
- Lepo
- Na kinipopo
- Ice
- Pena
- Keoneoneo
Pono kēia ʻano o ka ʻai ʻana no hoʻokahi mahina ma ka liʻiliʻi e kūpono i ke kuhi o ka pica.
Kaukaʻi ʻia i ka mea e ʻai ʻia a me ka nui, loaʻa nā ʻōuli o nā pilikia ʻē aʻe, e like me:
- ʻO ka ʻeha o ka ʻōpū, nausea, a me ka ʻōhū ʻana i kumu ʻia e ka paʻa ʻana i ka ʻōpū a i ʻole ka ʻōpū
- Ka luhi, nā pilikia hana, nā pilikia o ke kula a me nā hopena ʻē aʻe o ka lāʻau make kēpau a i ʻole ka meaʻai maikaʻi ʻole
ʻAʻohe hōʻike hoʻokahi no ka pica. Ma muli o ka hiki ʻana o ka pica i ka poʻe i loaʻa ʻole ka meaʻai maikaʻi ʻole, hiki i ka mea mālama ola ke hoʻāʻo i nā kiʻekiʻe o ke koko o ka hao a me ka zinc.
Hiki ke hana ʻia nā hōʻike koko e hoʻāʻo no ka anemia. Pono e nānā mau ʻia nā pae kēpau i nā keiki i ʻai paha i ka pena a i ʻole nā mea i uhi ʻia i ka lepo pena kēpau i ka pale no ka ʻino kēpau.
Hiki paha i ka mea hoʻolako ke hoʻāʻo no ka maʻi inā ʻai ke kanaka i ka lepo haumia a i ʻole nā ʻōpala holoholona.
Pono e hoʻoponopono mua i ka mālama ʻana i nā meaola e nalo a i ʻole nā pilikia olakino ʻē aʻe, e like me ka lāʻau make kēpau.
Pili ka mālama ʻana i ka pica i nā lawena, ke kaiapuni, a me ka ʻike ʻohana. Hoʻohui kekahi ʻano o ka mālama ʻana i ka lawena pica me nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole a i ʻole ka hoʻopaʻi (hoʻomāinoino aversion therapy). A laila uku ʻia ke kanaka no ka ʻai ʻana i nā meaʻai maʻamau.
Hiki paha i nā lāʻau lapaʻau ke kōkua i ka hōʻemiʻana i keʻano o ka maʻamau ināʻaʻoleʻo pica kahi maʻi o ka hoʻolālā e like me ke kīnā o ka naʻauao.
Loli ka kūleʻa hoʻomaʻamaʻa. I nā manawa he nui, mau ka maʻi i mau mau mahina a laila nalo wale iā ia iho. I kekahi mau hihia, hiki ke hoʻomau i loko o nā makahiki ʻōpio a i ʻole ke kūlana makua, keu hoʻi ke kū ʻia me nā maʻi ulu.
Komo pū nā pilikia:
- ʻO Bezoar (kahi nui o nā mea undigestible i paʻa i loko o ke kino, pinepine i ka ʻōpū)
- Maʻi kīnā
Kāhea i kāu mea hāʻawi inā ʻike ʻoe i kahi keiki (a makua paha) e ʻai ana i nā mea ʻole ka meaʻai.
ʻAʻohe pale kūikawā. Hiki ke kōkua i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka meaʻai kūpono.
