Patient's question:
About 2-3 centimeters longer (I think it might have been measured inaccurately). In the past year, it's grown about 10 cm. A while ago (during the summer), I experienced knee bone pain (the cause is unknown). Now, I'm about 173 cm tall. I feel like I'm growing taller slower than before. I'm so short and want to grow taller. How can I grow taller? I don't have a beard yet, but I have armpit and pubic hair, and my voice seems to have changed. I want to know how much longer I have until my growth spurt. How tall can I expect to be when I'm 18? Anyway, how can I grow taller?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: To increase height, you should eat more protein, especially foods rich in "amino acids," such as: flour, wheat germ, beans, shrimp, crabs, shellfish, seaweed, beef, chicken, liver, pork leg meat, eggs, milk, cheese, and dark-colored vegetables, etc. Conversely, foods like glutinous rice and desserts should be avoided as much as possible.Suggestions: Lifestyle, sitting positions (like kneeling), sleeping posture, and even furniture height are all related to height. Thick and hard bedding can affect blood circulation. Combined with exercises like running, I wish you quick growth.
