Is your child’s environment too clean? 🧼🛡️

As a Paediatric Infectious Disease & Immunologist, I teamed up with BFM Radio - The Business Station to explore how early exposure to diverse microbes shapes a child’s immune system—and when hygiene truly matters. 🧪✨

In this episode, we dive into:
👉🏻Why microbial diversity can boost resilience 🌱🧬
👉🏻Balancing cleanliness with healthy exposure 🧼➡️🧒
👉🏻The essential role of vaccines 💉🔬
👉🏻Practical tips for a safe, thriving home and classroom 🏡🏫

Tune in here: https://www.bfm.my/content/podcast/is-your-childs-environment-too-clean-and-how-it-affects-their-immune-system

Practical takeaways you can start today:
👉🏻Encourage outdoor play and varied environments (parks, soil, safe pets) 🐾🌳
👉🏻Use hygiene practices without over-relying on sanitizers 🧴❌🧼
👉🏻Stay up-to-date with vaccines and routine pediatric checkups 🗓️✅
👉🏻Talk to your paediatrician to tailor cleanliness for your family 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️

If you found this helpful, drop a like ❤️, share with fellow parents 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦, and tell us: What’s your top habit about keeping kids healthy at home? 👇

You’ve probably heard people say that kids these days have poorer immune systems compared to previous generations because they’re less exposed to germs and their environment is “too hygienic”. But how much of that is true? Why does it seem like newer generations tend to develop more allergie...

* Influenza Season *

This season, influenza has hit back quite hard,although most get well quickly. For some, it actually has taken longer to recover with complications as well

Hope this post comes in handy for parents 🙏🏼

When to Seek Help If not improving :
❓ Uncertainty about symptom severity
💧 Concern for dehydration, persistent fever, or breathing difficulties
🏥 Chronic conditions (asthma,allergies, immune concerns)

Deepavali vibes at the clinic 🎆✨

Huge shout-out to Azizah, my amazing clinic assistant, for decorating the space with so much warmth. Celebrating six months since I moved to private practice—yep,time flies when you're having fun 😊, plus my sessions at the university and KKM.

Milestones this period:
👉🏻Seeing more kids and adults with immune-related conditions, and watching them heal 💪❤️
👉🏻Growing our private-practice reach with integrated and holistic care 🌟

Big thanks to the awesome management team at Sunway Medical Centre Velocity for all the support 🙌

Grateful for everyone who’s been part of this journey.

Anak tidur, tapi tak sedar-sedar.

Dua hari pertama cuma demam.
Mak suap ubat, lap dahi, peluk anak yang menggigil.
Doktor kata influenza. Rehat cukup, nanti baik sendiri.

Tapi malam ketiga, semuanya berubah.
Anak senyap. Mata terbuka tapi tak menyahut bila dipanggil.
Lehernya kaku. Tangan mula kejang. Suhu makin tinggi.
Beberapa saat kemudian, sawan datang.

Jeritan mak bergema.
Nama anak dipanggil berulang kali, tapi tiada sahutan.
Dalam perjalanan ke hospital, doa mak cuma satu,
“Tolonglah, jangan ambil anak aku.”

Ramai ibu bapa tak tahu, virus influenza bukan sekadar jangkitan paru-paru.
Dalam kes tertentu, virus ini boleh menyerang otak dan selaput otak,
menyebabkan encephalitis atau meningitis, dua keadaan yang boleh meragut nyawa jika lambat dirawat.

Tanda-tanda bahaya yang perlu diperhatikan:
• Anak keliru atau terlalu mengantuk
• Sawan
• Sakit kepala kuat dan leher kaku
• Tak tahan cahaya
• Muntah berulang dan demam tinggi berpanjangan

Apabila virus sudah sampai ke otak, setiap minit yang kita tunggu boleh membawa akibat besar.
Anak yang tadi cuma demam, boleh tiba-tiba tidak sedarkan diri dalam masa beberapa jam.

Influenza bukan sekadar demam biasa.
Jika anak nampak lain dari biasa, segera ke hospital.
Lebih cepat dirawat, lebih besar peluang untuk diselamatkan.

Kerana dalam banyak kisah kehilangan, semuanya bermula dengan satu ayat yang sama
“Mak ingat demam biasa.”

Rawatan awal boleh selamatkan nyawa ⬇️

Rawatan awal boleh selamatkan nyawa ⬇️

“Dia cuma demam sikit,” kata suami. “Nanti eloklah tu,” balas isteri.
Malam itu mereka masih gelak-gelak tengok drama di ruang tamu.

Tapi menjelang subuh, nafas isterinya jadi pendek. Dadanya naik turun laju.
Panas badan tak surut, dia mula keliru, panggil nama anak tapi pandang kosong.
Dalam perjalanan ke hospital, dia sawan.

Doktor sahkan influenza.
Bukan selsema biasa.
Jangkitan dah sampai ke paru-paru.

Kadang yang kita anggap ringan, sebenarnya sedang melawan dari dalam.
Influenza boleh jadi bahaya bila terlambat dirawat.
Kalau demam makin teruk, sesak nafas, atau muntah berterusan, jangan tunggu.

Rawatan awal boleh selamatkan nyawa.
