How can a short person grow taller?
Disease description:
My child has been relatively short during this period and hasn't grown much compared to peers of the same age. I would like to ask how we can help the child grow taller under such circumstances?

Height is primarily influenced by genetic factors, but certain environmental factors can also promote growth and development. The following are some suggestions that may help with growth:
1. **Balanced Diet**: Ensure adequate intake of protein, such as from lean meats, fish, eggs, and dairy products. Pay attention to controlling sugar and salt intake to avoid interfering with normal physical development.
2. **Regular Exercise**: Appropriate physical activities such as rope jumping, basketball, and swimming can stimulate the secretion of growth hormone and promote bone growth.
3. **Sufficient Sleep**: Growth hormone is primarily secreted during sleep. Ensure adequate sleep duration and avoid staying up late and other unhealthy lifestyle habits.
4. **Positive Mindset**: Maintain an optimistic and positive attitude, as excessive anxiety and stress may hinder physical development and height growth.
5. **Medication**: Under a doctor's guidance, medications such as calcium carbonate D3 tablets, calcium gluconate oral solution, and lysine zinc gluconate granules may be used to help improve short stature symptoms.
