Can a 20-year-old boy still grow taller?

Patient's question:

Not picky about food, exercise, and can still go to work

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: There are two factors that affect height, first, genetic, and second, postnatal influence.
Advice: Since the patient is already 20 years old, they are basically done growing taller. However, if the patient consistently engages in sports activities like basketball for a long time, they may still grow a little taller. Sometimes, it's not necessary to be too concerned about height—tall people have their advantages, and short people have theirs as well.
