A. At 13 years old, if your son’s height growth seems slower than expected, it could be due to various factors like genetics, nutrition, or the timing of puberty. During puberty, growth plates in bones are still open, allowing for height increase. To support healthy growth, ensure he has a balanced diet rich in calcium, protein, vitamins, and minerals (like zinc), which are essential for bone health. Regular physical activity and exercises like stretching, jumping, or swimming can help stimulate growth. Additionally, ensuring adequate sleep and reducing stress can promote optimal growth. If growth remains slow or there are other concerns, it might be helpful to consult a pediatrician for further evaluation.
