what is the downside of removing cataracts?

Question 3

is squat really helpful in removing flabbiness from thighs??& losing fats from thighs !!

Accepted Answer

No: There are no foods or exercises that will trim fat in one particular area of the body. Generalized weight loss through healthy diet along with varied types of exercise will tone all areas of the body and give you a better overall appearance. Squats will tone the thighs but won't trim any more fat there than any other exercise. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Question 9

are there any risks with removing your appendix?

Accepted Answer

Yes.: The appendix serves no function that we are aware of, therefore, people do very well without one.

If the appendix has ruptured, there is a risk of developing a delayed infection weeks after surgery.
