Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As it is the possibility of increase in your height may not be possible as you are already 19 years. As you are still in boarder of the age, i advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for the problem.
They order for the X ray of the ends of the long bones. if the growth points are still active you can have the treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms anabolic steroid injections, periodically, multivitamins, calcium , and vitamin D.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
