Isle of Man health professionals discuss common condition in the elderly
Health professionals on the Island are warning against a condition known as 'bungalow legs'.
It's a noticeable loss of strength in a person's lower body, due to the effects of not walking up and down stairs.
It's been suggested that older people who have moved into one story homes find ways to exercise.
Ross Keat, a Consultant in Public Health Isle of Man, Andy Davis, a Consultant in Elderly Medicine, and Health and Wellbeing Co-ordinator Lesley Cunningham have been speaking to Howard Caine:
