Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, My son is 16 and he is currently 173 cm. He remains in the same height for the past three years, no matter what i add into his diet. I give him 2 eggs per day and a lot of milk, still doesn't help. He also plays Basketball and Tennis. My Husband's height is 6 ft and I am 5 ft 3. Will my son be able to grow up to 6 feet? He faces a lot of inferiority in school among his Basketball teammates as he remains in the same height and they have all grown. He wants to grow way over 6 ft and has started taking Calcium tablets and Protein supplements. Will changing the sports to swimming help him in his growth? How can he healthily reach 6 ft and will he be able to grow upto that?. Thank You.
