For children with short stature, it is necessary to check the bone age and growth hormone secretion level, and then decide whether it is suitable to use growth hormone therapy after excluding various diseases.
Growth hormone is considered to be the most effective treatment for short children. Drug intervention at the best treatment opportunity will promote the growth of children to a certain extent, but we must choose a formal medical institution.
Exercise is really good for growing taller.
1. Exercise can stimulate the epiphysis (pronounced hóu, both ends of the spine). It can promote the proliferation and ossification of chondrocytes in epiphyseal cartilage plate, promote bone development and help to grow taller. Children who exercise regularly are 2~3 cm taller than those who don't like sports. As long as there are sports that stimulate the knee joint, ankle joint and spine, such as basketball, swimming, mountain climbing and running, they can all promote height.
2. Exercise promotes the absorption of calcium. After exercise, the growth plate will be stimulated, resulting in stronger calcium absorption, which will help bone development. In particular, children's outdoor exercise and more sunshine are particularly beneficial to calcium absorption and bone growth.
3. Promote the secretion of growth hormone. After exercise, the secretion of growth hormone increases, and exercise can increase metabolism, enhance the body's disease prevention ability and prevent obesity. 4. Helps sleep. Exercise can promote sleep. Night is the golden period of growth hormone secretion, and high-quality sleep contributes to bone development. Therefore, parents should let their children do more outdoor sports to maximize their growth and develop their high potential.
