Question
My son is 150 cm tall and his bone age is 13 and a half years. He has started his growth and development, but he is shorter than children of the same age. How can I help him grow taller?
Answer
Height is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. It is recommended to maintain a positive attitude, establish healthy living habits, pay attention to diet and nutrition, and get enough sleep. Increasing physical activity, especially jumping exercises, can help with growth. If you are concerned, you can go to a regular hospital’s endocrinology department for further examination to determine the cause and receive treatment.
