How to treat lack of physical development?

Patient's question:

When I was a child, I was very short and my family was poor. When I turned 16, my family took me to a city hospital for a check-up. The doctor said I was lacking growth hormone and it would cost tens of thousands of dollars. Since my family couldn't afford it, we didn't get the treatment. Now I'm 24 years old, and there's still no change. I still look like a child, except that I'm a little taller than when I was a child.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your condition, it is caused by kidney Yang deficiency. Treatment should be carried out through diet and Chinese herbal medicine simultaneously. In terms of diet, you can consume dog meat, lamb, chives, and loach for food supplementation. Medications include Shenbao, Yucongrong, Jinkui Shenqi Wan, and Yougui Wan, among others. Additionally, it is recommended that you increase physical exercise, maintain a regular sleep schedule, pay attention to rest, keep a cheerful mood, avoid bad stimuli, eat a light diet, and drink plenty of water while avoiding spicy foods.
