Gaining weight in a healthy way is not ROCKET science. It just takes knowing a little bit about muscle physiology and exercise science. If you are not gaining weight than do not look much further for the answer. It is really not that complicated and really only breaks down to one or two or all of the following:
1. You do not maintain energy balance (Energy In vs. Energy Out).

Hi s
Get an xray done pa and lateral view of your ankle. Sometime you get a hairline fracture when ankle is twisted. If this is so go for soft plaster for 4 weeks.

bandage is not of any use for fractures. It depends on which bone is fractured - if its toe fractures then you dont need any thing other than ice and elevation - but if its any other fracture then you need a proper plaster cast

Dear lybrate-user,
1) The height of the legs should be such that the blood does not accumulate in the legs, so above chest level.
2) when sleeping, it is preferable that you do not use any bandage, since normal circulation to the rest of the leg should become normal.
3) depends on how large and disfigured the varicose veins are, you can extend the time. It should be done only to reduce the accumulation, but not all the time.
4) bandages is ok when you need to be standing or walki...more
