Best Answer

You should hyphenate well nourished and well developed IF followed by a noun - i.e., "well-nourished and well-developed man" or "well-nourished and well-developed patient". If the noun is before these, then you would not hyphenate - i.e., "The patient is well nourished and well developed". This would also be true for the following: "well-healed scar" or "the scar is well healed". Answer provided by a medical transcriptionist with 18 years experience.
