Patient's question:
8-year-old epiphyseal plate has closed, can it be quickly opened through surgical methods? If it can be quickly opened again, how much can it grow? Is the risk level high? Which hospital is professional? Past treatment history and effectiveness: Not concerned about any help: Please help me, doctor.Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, height is mainly determined by intergenerational inheritance and nutritional selection, and has little relationship with premature birth. Boys only stop growing gradually after the age of 30. If you are a man, there is little room for height increase now. The main factors that interfere with height growth are exercise. To grow taller, you must stimulate the continuous growth of bones. Surgical intervention to stop the growth of leg bones and then allow them to grow again can enhance height, but this is not recommended.
