Hi,
As you are already 22-23 yrs there is no chance to have more height.
I do not understand why you have prejudice of low ht ? and your height is not so low that you mind it.
Develop self confidence and have a strong will,come out from hating low ht people mental attitude.
You can do exercise which has got capability to increase ht. like running,jogging,swimming,rope jumping.
Ok and bye.
