Patient's question:
My son is 17 years old and is only 155 cm tall. How can I not be concerned? About his past treatment and effectiveness: Not caring what kind of help: Can my son grow taller at 17?Doctor's answer:
During the growth spurt in adolescence, height increases very rapidly. The reason for growing taller is mainly the growth and development of bones. On average, boys can grow 7 to 9 centimeters per year, with the maximum reaching 10 to 12 centimeters. Male height stops increasing between the ages of 23 and 26. This is because the epiphyses close, so growth can no longer occur.1. Intergenerational inheritance: A child's height is greatly influenced by intergenerational inheritance.
2. Nutrition: Nutrition is the most important material basis for growth and development, such as zinc, calcium, iron, protein, and vitamins. Engage in more ball sports.
