益生菌 vs 益生元：有甚麼分別？

兩者名稱相似，但在腸道中扮演不同角色。

🦠 益生菌是身體裡的細菌、活性有機體，有助維持平衡與和諧。
🌾 益生元則是不可消化的纖維，是益生菌生長和活躍的「燃料」。

兩者共同作用可形成共生質，共生質增強了益生菌和益生元的益處，協同作用以優化我們的腸道健康。

Probiotics vs Prebiotics: What’s the Difference?

They may sound similar, but probiotics and prebiotics play different roles in the gut.

🦠 Probiotics are bacteria and live organisms that help maintain balance and harmony.
🌾 Prebiotics are non-digestible fibres that act as fuel for the growth and activity of probiotics.

Together, probiotics and prebiotics form synbiotics, working synergistically to support gut health.

腸胃炎可由病毒、細菌或寄生蟲感染引起，並可透過受污染的食物或食水，或與感染者密切接觸傳播。

常見症狀包括腹瀉、噁心及嘔吐、腹痛或腹部痙攣、輕度發燒、頭痛及肌肉痛。

大部分個案會自行緩解，但補充充足水分及預防脫水十分重要。兒童、長者及免疫系統較弱人士較容易出現嚴重脫水及併發症。

Gastroenteritis may be caused by viral, bacterial or parasitic infections and can spread through contaminated food or water, or through close contact with an infected person.

Common symptoms include diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain or cramping, mild fever, headache and muscle aches.

Most cases resolve on their own, but staying well hydrated and preventing dehydration are important. Young children, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems are more vulnerable to severe dehydration and complications.

👉 Swipe to learn about common symptoms, how gastroenteritis spreads, management and prevention.

Severe dehydration requires immediate medical attention. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice.

準備母乳餵哺，懷孕期間是否需要預先刺激或鍛鍊乳房？

迷思：哺乳前需要為乳房「預先準備」。
真相：母乳餵哺是自然的過程，不需特別的身體準備。

懷孕期間搓揉乳頭、使用乳霜或進行按摩並非必要，反而可能對乳頭造成不適。女性的身體會自然準備好分泌乳汁的機制。

更重要的是對自己有信心、抱持決心，並獲得支持與資訊。

寶寶出生後進行肌膚接觸及盡早餵哺尤其關鍵，不但能促進親子連結，也有助刺激母乳分泌。
每位媽媽的情況都不同。如對懷孕或母乳餵哺有疑問，請向產科醫生查詢。

Do you need to physically prepare your breasts before breastfeeding?

Myth: You need to physically prepare your breasts before breastfeeding.
Fact: You do not.

Breastfeeding is a natural process. Once you are pregnant, your body begins to prepare for milk production on its own. There is no need for any physical stimulation or conditioning of the breasts during pregnancy.

What is essential is mental preparation. Believing in your ability to breastfeed, combined with determination and support, can make a significant difference, especially during the first few weeks postpartum.

Early and frequent skin-to-skin contact with your newborn can encourage milk flow and promote bonding. Keeping your baby close also supports better breastfeeding outcomes.

Every pregnancy is different. If you have questions about pregnancy or breastfeeding, speak with your obstetrician or a member of Matilda’s maternity team.

夏天腳痕、甩皮，只係出汗太多？ 👟
答案係：未必。

香港天氣炎熱潮濕，加上長時間穿著運動鞋或不通風嘅鞋履，雙腳容易處於高溫、潮濕嘅環境。腳汗亦有利真菌生長。

香港腳常見於腳底及腳趾之間，可能出現痕癢皮疹及脫皮。
除了留意症狀，日常亦應保持雙腳，特別係腳趾之間清潔乾爽，並穿著乾爽通風嘅鞋襪。

如出現相關症狀，應徵詢醫生意見。

Itchy, peeling feet in summer — just too much sweating? 👟
The answer is: not necessarily.

Hong Kong’s hot and humid weather can leave the feet in a warm, damp and poorly ventilated environment for prolonged periods — for example, when wearing sports shoes during exercise or wearing shoes in hot weather. These conditions can make it easier for fungus to grow.

Athlete’s foot commonly affects the soles of the feet and the skin between the toes, and may cause an itchy rash and peeling skin.

In addition to watching for symptoms, keep the feet — particularly between the toes — clean and dry, and wear dry, well-ventilated footwear and socks.

If you develop any related symptoms, seek medical advice.

🌙 小朋友半夜發燒，家長最常問：應該去 24/7 兒科門診，還是急症室？
可以先按小朋友嘅症狀嚴重程度作初步判斷：

🚨 危及生命情況
如昏迷不醒、重大創傷、嚴重出血或持續抽搐，應前往公立醫院急症室，必要時致電 999。

🟡 需要緊急診治或檢查
如未滿 3 個月嬰兒發燒，或孩子出現嗜睡、拒絕飲水、呼吸困難、脫水、腹痛、損傷或懷疑骨折，又或服藥後仍持續發燒，可考慮 24/7 醫院門診服務。

🟢 情況較輕微
如孩子超過 3 個月大，只有輕微發燒，但飲水正常且仍有玩意，或只有輕微咳嗽、感冒、輕微碰撞或瘀傷，可先在家觀察，或考慮遙距醫療。

如家長對情況有疑問，或小朋友症狀持續、加重，應盡早尋求專業醫療意見。
如果你直覺覺得情況「唔多妥」，及早求醫會較安心。

🌙 When your child develops a fever at night, one of the most common questions parents ask is: should you go to a 24/7 paediatric outpatient service, or A&E?
A helpful first step is to make an initial judgement based on how severe your child’s symptoms are:

🚨 Life-threatening emergency
If your child is unconscious, has major trauma, is bleeding heavily, or has a seizure that does not stop, go to a public hospital A&E immediately. Call 999 if needed.

🟡 Urgent medical assessment or tests may be needed
A 24/7 hospital outpatient service may be appropriate if your baby is under 3 months old and has a fever, or if your child is unusually drowsy, refuses to drink, has breathing difficulties, signs of dehydration, an injury or suspected fracture, or remains feverish despite medication.

🟢 Milder situation
If your child is over 3 months old and has a mild fever but is still drinking normally and remains playful, or only has mild cough and cold symptoms, a minor bump, or mild bruising, home observation or telehealth may be appropriate.

If you are unsure, or if your child’s symptoms persist or worsen, it is best to seek professional medical advice early. If something simply does not feel right, getting medical advice sooner may give you added peace of mind.

Influenza is a highly contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses, and it can affect people of all ages.

Common symptoms include fever, chills, muscle or body aches, fatigue, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, and headache. Good personal hygiene, such as frequent handwashing, using alcohol-based hand rub, and covering your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, can help reduce the risk of infection.

The article also highlights seasonal influenza vaccination as one of the effective ways to help prevent influenza and its complications.

腹股溝突然有腫塊，企得耐有墜脹感，或者一咳就隆起，瞓低又好似縮返入去？
呢啲情況未必只係肌肉拉傷，亦可能係小腸氣（腹股溝疝氣）。

小腸氣較常見於男性，原因可能同男性生理結構、年齡增長、長期咳嗽、便秘或經常搬重物有關。由於小腸氣係腹壁結構出現缺口，藥物、藥膏或自然療法一般不能根治，需由醫生評估是否需要手術修補。

了解小腸氣成因、常見症狀，以及微創與傳統開腹修補術嘅分別：

A groin lump, dragging sensation, or bulge when coughing may not be just a muscle strain. It may be related to an inguinal hernia.

Inguinal hernias are more common in men and may be linked to anatomy, ageing, chronic coughing, constipation, or heavy lifting. As a hernia is a structural issue in the abdominal wall, medication or natural remedies alone usually cannot cure it. Medical assessment by doctor can help to determine the appropriate treatment option.

Is a robot really performing the surgery? 🤖

When people think of “robotic surgery”, many imagine that a robot is performing the operation on its own.

In reality, robotic-assisted surgery is always surgeon-led. The robotic system is simply a highly advanced tool. The entire procedure is strictly controlled by an experienced surgeon, with the robotic arm enhancing precision and stability for better outcomes and potentially faster recovery.

Dr Jason Brockwell, Specialist in Orthopaedics and Traumatology, explores some of the common myths around robotic-assisted surgery, explains how the technology works, reviews the medical evidence, and shares what patients may wish to consider before making a decision.
