A member asked:

My bone size of forearm is comparably way too small. and i am skinny too. please tell me what should i do to make it larger? my age is 19.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Forearm size: At this age, there's no much to do as your bone plates have closed. Not sure if one of your forearms or both are small and if they are disproportionately small compared with other bones.
