Hi I'm Dr.hema physiotherapist.

I understand your concern.
As you are 19years and you can increase your height by diet amd exercise.
1. Rich nutrients that includes more calcium, protein, zinc, vit d. (Dairy products, dhal,pumpkin, peanuts, fresh veggies, fruits).
2.joining sports team, and being very active.
3.strecthing exercises from neck, , shoulder, trunk and legs has to be slow and gentle.
4.hanging on a bar just for 5 to 10 secs daily(can be avoided in issue)
5..swimming twice or thrice weekly.
