Dr. Alvin Lin answered

Gain what?: Our bodies are not absolutely symmetric. Stop trying to conform to societal ideals of perfection. Don't focus on gaining muscle to achieve a specific look. Instead, make good health your goal and achieve it w/good nutrition & regular exercise. If you're still concerned about asymmetry, go see your Family Doc for an evaluation.
