Bone age measurement is a general term for bone age, which needs to be determined based on the special images of bones in X-rays. The transitions in human bone growth are similar, with each bone developing in a continuous and phased manner. Bones at different stages have different morphological characteristics. Therefore, bone age assessment can more accurately reflect a person's development level and maturity level. The growth period for girls ends at the age of 17.3 years old, and the growth period for boys ends at the age of 18.4 years old. After the epiphysis closes, it indicates that the growth is basically completed and the possibility of further growth is not very high. However, due to the subsequent function of bone cells, it is possible to grow another 3 to 5 centimeters. The bones in different parts of the body grow at different rates. The distal limbs grow much earlier than the proximal bones. When the body's growth rate slows down, the growth of the proximal lumbar and cervical vertebrae has not completely stopped, and there is still a lot of room for growth. Therefore, after the bones close, it can still help people grow taller through reasonable methods. The actual methods are as follows: 1. Supplement more calcium and zinc: After measuring bone age, if you pay more attention to calcium and zinc supplementation, it can help you grow taller to a certain extent. In daily life, we should actively supplement iron and eat more foods that are high in calcium or can promote the body's absorption of calcium, such as dairy products, bean products, protein foods, egg yolks, freshwater fish, meat products and other foods. 2. Reasonable diet: After measuring bone age, eat more nutritious and healthy foods, pay attention to the scientific combination of diet, and develop healthy eating habits, which can also promote body growth and help grow taller. 3. Do muscle stretching exercises: After measuring bone age, doing some muscle stretching exercises can also help improve. For example: jogging, jumping, football, tennis, basketball, jumping, etc. are all sports that promote growth. Through daily comprehensive training, you can still grow taller even if your bone age is closed. 4. Adequate sleep: After the body falls asleep, children's growth hormone metabolism is more abundant than usual and lasts longer, which is beneficial to growth. |
