    Continue with good diet from a nutritionist supplementing with coral calcium& magnesium. Weight bearing exercises will promote bone strength so you MUST do this for bone benefits. Good luck. Do not consider HGH at 20yrs old unless under supervision.

    Bone is living and dynamic tissue that responds to exercise by becoming stronger. Each time you put your bones to work they receive a chemical message telling them they need to be strong. Without physical challenges to trigger that bone building message your bones eventually lose mass and strength. Weight bearing and strength training (resistance) exercises put the right kind of demands on your bones to make them build density and strength.


    Weight bearing exercise causes your bones and muscles to work against gravity. When you walk, jog, climb stairs, dance, jump, or play tennis, your feet and legs bear the impact of your weight against the force of gravity. This form of exercise stimulates the bones in your hips and spine, helping to prevent osteoporosis in the very areas that are particularly vulnerable to the loss of bone mass.

    If your doctor suggest to replace weight training with swimming I suggest to get a new doctor.

    If you do notice pain in your wrist, slowly increase the weight do the weight with proper form and have no discomfort. Increase the weight when there is no discomfort and you are comfortable. Give it time.

    Swimming is good for joint disorders, lifting is good for bones, get another doctor not some old timer who lived through the 20's depression and had a crush on Marilyn Monroe..
