Uhlanga Lwefoni: Lokhu Ukubheka Phansi Efonini Yakho Usuku Lonke Kwenza Kanjani Emzimbeni Wakho

Phakamisa ikhanda lakho phansi ukuze ufunde lokhu efomini yakho — uzwa lokho? Ukucindezela okuncane emuva kwekhanda lakho, ukujolisa kwezinqe zakho. Manje cabanga ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi ubamba le ndawo ethile amahora nsuku zonke, unyaka nonyaka. Le mizwa eminingi abantu baye bafunda ukuyiphila nayo — ikhanda eliqinile, izinqe eziqinile, ukucindezela okuphakeme emuva — kancane kancane kubonakala ukuthi kuxhumene nokuma okukodwa: ukujolisa phansi kwefoni, okwaziwa kakhulu ngokuthi "uhlanga lwefoni."

Yingxenye eyodwa yokulimala okuhambisana nefoni okungokwenyama kuphela, futhi kubalulekile ukuhlukanisa phakathi kwe-biomechanics yangempela nezihloko ezesabekayo. Nansi okwenziwa ukubheka phansi efoni yakho emzimbeni wakho, lokho ubufakazi bokuthi kuyiqiniso uma kuqhathaniswa nalokho okukhuliswa kakhulu, kanye nezinguquko ezincane ezithuthukisa lokhu.

I-physics yokugoba kwekhanda phansi

Ikhanda lakho linzima — cishe ama-kilogramu ama-5 (cishe amaphoundi ayi-11) esimweni esijwayelekile phezu kwesikhumba sakho. Inkinga ikulezi zimo: njengoba ugoba ikhanda lakho phambili ukuze ubheke phansi, umthwalo osebenzayo emathanjeni akho nasemgudwini wakho ukhula kakhulu, ngoba isisindo manje sikhona phambili kwesakhiwo esisekelayo kunokuba sibe phezulu kwaso. Ukuhlola okuvamile kukhombisa ukuthi uma ugoba kakhulu phambili, umthwalo osebenzayo emgudwini ungakhuphuka ube yizinga elilinganiselwa ezikhathini eziningi zesisindo sangempela sekhanda lakho.

Noma ngabe lezi "27 kilograms!" ezitholakele ziqondile noma cha, umkhombandlela uyavuma futhi awuphikiswa: uma uthinta ikhanda lakho phambili, imisipha yakho yentamo nephezulu ibalulekile ukuze ibambe khona. Ukwenza lokho amahora ngosuku, le misipha ihlala ibhujiswa, kuholela ekukhathaleni, ukuvuvukala, nasekukhathazekeni okukhuluma ngakho abaningi abasebenzisi bezingcingo. Lokhu kuyisithwathwa esiphakeme, kuphindaphindwa izinkulungwane zezikhathi.

Ikhanda lakho linweight engaba ngu-5kg elibhalansiswe emgudwini wakho. Uma ulifaka phambili ukuze ubheke phansi, umthwalo wentamo yakho uyanda — futhi ubamba le mpilo amahora ngosuku. I-Text neck ayimfihlakalo; iyisisekelo sokusebenzisa amandla, kuphindaphindwa izinkulungwane zezikhathi.

Lokhu okukhona emibhalweni — nokuthi yini edlulele kakhulu

Masibe nesilinganiso, ngoba le ndaba ikhangwa kakhulu. Okusekelwe kahle: ukuhlala phambili isikhathi eside kuholela ekusebenzeni kwemisipha nokukhathala emzimbeni, futhi kuhambisana nobuhlungu bezinhlangothi, ukuvuvukala, nokungakhululeki, ikakhulukazi kubasebenzisi bezinsiza ezinzima. Ubuhlungu besikhashana kanye nenqubo yokukhathala kwemisipha kuyikho futhi kubhalwe kahle.

Okungaqinisekisiwe futhi kuvame ukuhunyushwa kakhulu: izimangalo zokuthi ubuhlungu bezinhlangothi bukhomba ekulimaleni okungapheli kwemithambo, ukuguga kwangaphambili, noma ukujika kwemithambo kubantu abaphephile akukhuthazwa kahle. Umzimba uyakwazi ukuzivumelanisa, futhi isikhundla siyinto eyodwa kuphela phakathi kweziningi ekuphathweni kwemithambo isikhathi eside. Ngakho-ke, ukuhlela ngokwethembeka: ubuhlungu bezinhlangothi buyinsiza yangempela yokukhathala kwemisipha nokungakhululeki okufanele kubhekwane nakho, kodwa akuyona ingozi yokubhubhisa imithambo njengoba ezinye izihloko zikhombisa. Thatha ubuhlungu ngokungathi sína; ungakwenzi kube yingozi isikhathi eside.

Akukhona nje ngemva yakho

Isimo sokubheka phansi ifoni siza nezinye izinkinga: ikhanda phansi, amahlombe aphukile, nendawo engaphezulu ebhajwe. Le ndlela yonke ingaholela ekucindezelweni kwendawo engaphezulu naphakathi kwamahlombe, futhi ucwaningo oluthile luhlanganisa isimo sokubheka phansi njalo nokuphefumula okungajulile nokuthi kungaba nemiphumela emoyeni nasekugcineni amandla. Ukuhlala uhlezi phansi kwefoni isikhathi eside akukhona nje inkinga yemva — kuyisimo somzimba esiphelele esingakhelwanga ukuba sibe khona amahora.

Kukhona futhi okuthile okungase kube nomthelela: isimo sokubheka phansi, esivalelekile, kanye nemizwa ephansi kungase kuqinise omunye nomunye. Nakuba le ndawo ingeyona eyaziwayo kakhulu, ibonisa indlela efanayo nezinye zonke — ukugoba ikhanda phansi ngefoni akusizi umzimba wakho noma isimo sakho, futhi ukujika phezulu kuvame ukusiza ezindaweni eziningi ngasikhathi sinye.

Izixazululo ezilula ezisiza ngempela

Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi ukucindezela komphimbo okukhona ngenxa yokuma kahle kuphendula kahle ezishintsheni ezincane, ezisebenzayo. Awudingi iklinikhi — udinga ukuwumisa umumo owodwa amahora:

• Phakamisa ifoni, ungayiphakamiseli phansi. Isixazululo esikhulu kakhulu: phakamisa ifoni ukuze ifike ezingeni lamahlo esikhundleni sokwehla ikhanda lakho. Kubukeka kancane kungajwayelekile; umphimbo wakho uzokubonga. Qinisekisa ukuthi ikhanda lakho limi kahle phezu kwamahlombe akho.
• Thatha ama-break avamile. Umonakalo ungaphakathi kwesikhathi, hhayi emsebenzini uqobo. Ukubheka phansi okwesikhashana kulungile; ukubheka phansi imizuzu engamashumi amane engaphazamiseki kuyinkinga. Shintsha, bheka phezulu, futhi uhambise umphimbo wakho njalo.
• Nciphisa isikhathi sokusebenzisa ifoni. Isikhathi esincane ekuphakamiseni kusho ukuncipha kokucindezela — inzuzo ehlobene nayo yonke eminye imbangela yokunciphisa. Bheka umhlahlandlela wethu ku ukunciphisa isikhathi sokubuka isikrini ngaphandle kokuzikhandla.
• Phakamisa futhi uqine. Ukuphakamisa okuncane komphimbo kanye nezivivinyo eziqinisa umhlane ophakeme nokudonsa amahlombe emuva kuphikisela umkhuba wokuphakamisela phambili. Nokho, ukuhamba okuncane, njalo kusiza imisipha ethwele umthwalo ukuvuselela.
• Hlela amadivayisi ngendlela efanele. Ngamaseshini amade, phakamisa ifoni noma ithebhulethi ezingeni lamahlo, sebenzisa isikhwama, futhi uphakamise ama-laptop esikhundleni sokukhahlela phansi.

Uma unokukhathazeka okuqhubekayo noma okukhulu komphimbo, ukungabi namuzwa, noma ukuvuvukala ezandleni, lokho kudlula umphimbo ojwayelekile — bheka uchwepheshe wezempilo esikhundleni sokuzilapha. Nokho, ngezinkinga ezivamile zokuma kwefoni, izixazululo ezingenhla ngokuvamile zanele, futhi ukukhululeka kuza ngokushesha uma uyeka ukugcina umphimbo ophakamisela phansi amahora.

Umqondo ophakathi

Ubuhlungu be-‘text neck’ buyinkinga ye-phonela eyenzekayo emzimbeni, futhi kulula ukuyiqonda: ikhanda lakho elinzima, elijolise phambili amahora ambalwa ngosuku, ligcina imisipha yentamo yakho kanye ne-back upper ibhujiswa njalo, kukhiqiza ubuhlungu nokungakhululeki okukhona kwabantu abaningi abavumile. Le ndlela iyasebenza noma ngabe ezinye zezihloko ezimnyama mayelana nokulimala okungapheli zikhuluma kakhulu.

Futhi kulula ukukulungisa — hhayi ngegajethi noma iklinikhi, kodwa ngokuphakamisa ifoni esikhundleni sokwehla ikhanda lakho, ukuphula le ndawo njalo, nokuchitha isikhathi esincane emgudwini. Bheka isimo sakho sokuma manje, phakamisa ikhanda lakho, futhi uvale amahlombe akho emuva. Lokhu kulungiswa okuncane, uma kuphindaphindwa, kuyisixazululo esikhulu. Umzimba wakho ubamba isikhumbuzo sokuthi ubamba kanjani ifoni yakho — ngakho, bamba kahle.
