Patient's question:
Is it normal for a child under 15 years old to be only 158 cm tall?History and effectiveness of previous treatment: No further illnesses have occurred, no no no no no.
What kind of help is desired: Wants to grow taller than 1.7 meters
Doctor's answer:
The height of a person is influenced by both hereditary and postnatal factors. Parents contribute only a small portion to their child's height, while the rest is determined by postnatal factors such as diet and exercise. Through postnatal efforts, we can maximize our height. Pay attention to your diet, ensuring a balanced combination of meat and vegetables, and a mix of coarse and fine grains. Consume more high-protein foods like milk, eggs, lean meat, and fish. Engage in sports that involve running and spinning, such as long jump, basketball, and jump rope. Practice sunbathing for more than 15 minutes daily. Persistence will surely yield satisfying results. Thank you for your consultation, and I hope this information is helpful to you.
