Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have an issue with the size and shape of my arms. They are very thin around my wrists. I would like to know if there is anything that can enlarge it. I am 59 years old, of good health, weight is about 116 lbs, and height is 5.3 feet. Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

For thin arms, you can go to the gym regularly for enhancing muscle growth. A protein-rich diet should be taken to provide nutrition to muscles. If your thin arm is particularly in one portion then EMG-like (electromyography) investigation can be done for further workup.

I hope this will help you.

Thanks and take care.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
