What Causes Leg Thinning?

Hi I am a 27 year male adult. I usually work from home and to say my work conditions of late are such that i have had to work at night and sleep late in morning. Now lately i can observe myself that my legs are getting skinnier and thinner. To an extent one can see the veins marks and the bones. All my acquaintances have the same observation. Earlier i used to have average thickened legs. Now i can feel i am loosing the mass in my legs. Now a friend told me that it could me the masturbation which is causing this effect. Well to be honest of late i am masturbating almost each day. Plz tell me whats the reason behind my legs thinning out? Thanking in anticipation.

Hello,

Masturbation in no way lead to thinning of legs.Most probably your friend have joked with you.There can be following reasons for this-

-Decrease manual work or walking.
-Deficiency of multivitamins and vitamin D.
-Decrease protein intake.
-Any major injury to spine.

At present i shall advice you to take good food with good protein intake .You may have multivitamin supplements for few days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Mukesh Tiwari
