Daughter is 17 years old, height 174 cm. She doesn't want to grow any taller anymore.

Patient's question:

Often have knee pain, ankle pain. Went to the hospital to see a doctor and said it was growing pain.

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: This is very easy to control because height is related to genetics, and external factors cannot easily control genetic factors. Growth pain is only temporary and may disappear in one or two more years. Girls usually stop growing around the age of 18, or their growth may become extremely slow.
Advice: If both parents are short in height, but the child's height significantly exceeds that of the parents, it is important to check whether there is a pituitary disorder. In this case, it is recommended that you have your child tested for blood growth hormone levels. I hope my answer is helpful to you!
