Doctor's answer:
My mom is very short, and I'm already 16 years old. Can it still be remedied? The prerequisite for increasing height is bone age, which is how the epiphyses close. If the epiphyses haven't closed, there's still room to grow without medication. If the epiphyses have closed, he will absolutely no longer grow. No medication can assist in height increase, even if growth hormone is used, it won't help. Properly adjust your diet, don't overeat, and ensure you get sufficient nutrition.
