I had a surgery on my shoulder and is now unable to do exercise till my physiotherapy continues as I am unable to move my right hand. What shall I do to keep my weight in check. I am a 27 year old guy weighing 65kgs. Though my weight is not that high my belly bulges out all the time since my operation.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, that you are unable to move your right hand after surgery.
And increase in the abdomen is found after the surgery. It can be controlled, by diet regimen.
Avoid the calories, fats, oils, junk foods, fleshy fruits like guava, and banana.
Minimize the sleeping time, practice late to bed, and early to rise. Avoid the day time sleep.
For movement of the right hand,I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms nuerotropic injections for 10 consecutive days and then periodically. supplements of calcium, vitamin D, and pain killers when needed.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
