Talk to General Physician on Height Problem

Asking For Self, Male 19, Muzaffarabad

AOA my height is 5 feet 4 inches how can i increase my height?

General Physician in Muzaffarabad - Dr. Sheikh Ahsan Iqbal

Height is largely determined by genetics and can be influenced by factors such as nutrition, exercise, and overall health. However, once the growth plates in your bones have fused, which typically happens around the age of 18-25 for most people, it becomes difficult to increase your height.

If you're still in your growth phase, you may be able to optimize your growth potential by:

Getting proper nutrition: Eating a balanced and nutritious diet can help ensure that your body has the nutrients it needs to grow properly. This includes consuming adequate protein, calcium, vitamin D, and other vitamins and minerals that support bone growth.

Exercising regularly: Regular physical activity, particularly weight-bearing exercises like running, jumping, and playing sports, can help stimulate bone growth and development.

Getting enough sleep: Your body produces growth hormone during sleep, so getting enough restful sleep each night is important for maximizing your growth potential.

Maintaining good posture: Poor posture can compress your spine and make you appear shorter than you actually are. Maintaining good posture can help you stand tall and improve your overall appearance.

However, it's important to remember that height is largely determined by genetics, so there is no guaranteed way to increase your height beyond what is determined by your genes

Wa Alaikum Assalam!

The first thing to check is whether this is in your FAMILY HISTORY or not! Because children's height majorly depends on their parents average height.

Secondly, if this is not the case, then the best option to help yourself with height issue is to regularly do stretching exercises along with a good intake of CALCIUM, VITAMIN D and PROTEIN. And, for this you can consult with a Clinical Dietitian to help you with this!
