How to treat short stature

Patient's question:

The daughter is currently 10 years old, with a height of 1.35 meters and a weight of 37 kilograms. Her breasts have just begun to develop. The bone age X-ray shows a bone age of 11 years +. I am 1.58 meters tall, my spouse is 1.71 meters tall, my grandmother is 1.45 meters tall, and my grandfather is 1.80 meters tall.

Doctor's answer:

Males between 20 and 24 years old and females between 19 and 23 years old, both limbs long bones and vertebral bones have completed ossification, and height growth stops. To increase height, one must eat well and sleep well (both height and weight gain occur during the night), and also engage in appropriate exercise. Pinching the spine or cupping can unblock meridians, promote blood circulation and metabolism, and have a certain effect on increasing height. However, pinching the spine or cupping needs to be for about a month to possibly be effective, but it is not effective for everyone.
