Went to a Orthopedic doctor today… turns out, a back surgery will make me 9.6 cm taller

[Red Fox]

… and I’m 1.65m. I thought I was 1.62m, which is what it says in my passport.

I have extreme lumbar-lordosis. He can straighten my curve (surgery-exercises combination). I should be 1.74m in around 7-9 months!!! (See article below, which I found today)

The proportions will still be good as my legs are longer than my torso atm. I will also wear lifts in shoes

Sure this is still short, but it’s better than 1.62m which is the height I thought I will be stuck at. My dick length is 16.5cm, 13.7cm girth. Is it over for me? I guess facially I’m normal. I’ve been diagnosed with schizophrenia a year ago

At home I found this article:

Student will graduate 4 inches TALLER than when she started the course

Danielle Foster, 25, from London, was diagnosed with scoliosis when she was 16. She recently had surgery to correct it after it became so bad it was causing her spine to bend at a 80 degree curve.

Can I get this surgery without scoliosis?

I have lumbar-lordosis (hyper-lordosis), not scoliosis and it still works on me. Is your back like this (lumbar lordosis pic)

Hyperlordosis of the Lumbar spine, it's causes and potential problems

Hyperlodosis is a postural problem of an extreme lumbar lordotic arch. Discusses it's causes, it's problems and stretches to help prevent.

I hope it will all go well and as promised! But it’s a good start, knowing it’s possible

mine is a slight head forward, but also instead of sway back, my hips sway to lean forward, what does this mean? is it fixable and will it give me extra height?

So do I understand correctly that you have NO swayback but instead your hips “sway” forwards? There are good back exercises you can do (for posture or gaining muscles in the relevant parts so you “grow”). Surgery is risky though. Let me text you later

this is called anterior pelvic tilt i think

people on le reddit claim 1-1.5 inch height increase but its probably larp. since developing APT ive only lost like 0.3 inches or so

 

[Zer0/∞]

you're as tall as me??

 

[Red Fox]

you're as tall as me??

Yea apparently! I never measured myself only saw what’s in my passport and ID, also the surgery and exercises should make me between 7-9.6cm taller, but still short

 

[anticel]

what kind of surgery are u getting to fix your back?

 

[Red Fox]

you're as tall as me??

that you in your pfp btw?

 

[Acne Victim]

Mirin bro, you’re allowed to have a normal life now

 

[Red Fox]

what kind of surgery are u getting to fix your back?

it’s called Pedicle Subtraction Osteotomy

 

[Zer0/∞]

that you in your pfp btw?

yes

 

[Red Fox]

yes

Sure

 

[´´´´´´´´]

how many lordosis degrees u got

yeah pretty much, thanks bro, yeah I feel like back surgery would be too risky for what it's worth for me, but I would love to be able to correct everything about my posture cause right now it sucks, and maybe even leaving some height gains on the table

 

[UnaMogger]

must be lifefuel for you. congrats!

yeah that's probably it, the main concern I have with it, is that my balance gets way worse, and sometimes makes me trip forward a little, but with how severe it is I wouldn't be surprised if fixing that alone (not neck) gives me a 1-2cm increase at the lowest

 

[Red Fox]

yes

Sure

np man. i’ll gather the best sites/exercises, till now i was to damn lazy to do them, i freaking regret that

 

[Deleted member 27148]

Im happy for you bro, i have the same issue but idt surgery is necessary for me

 

[Squirtoutmabooty]

That’s got to be extreme

I can kinda understand the pain though, I thought I had hyper lordosis because going into that position was the only way for my chin to not be on my sternum. Turns out I just had extremely shortened lats (and other muscles too, but that was the main one), and when I fixed it I “gained” at least 2 inches just because my neck could extend up again

 

[Deleted member 21048]

Thanks I'll be adding this to my LL as well and shoes lifts after full spine/leg surgeries

 

[Red Fox]

Thanks man. I don’t have back pain but surgery is one option for me. I will try exercises first but it’s good knowing that there’s a good viable alternative to LL out here

Good inputs thanks for this. I will try exercises first but surgery is plan B, which I might do. Not as extreme as LL

Yeah definitely. I lose 2 inches from my APT and it's bad for me, so I don't even know what 4 inches would look like. Regardless, I'm very happy for you and recommend that you do get that surgery

how severe is your APT? do you mind showing me an image of how bad it is? It can be something similar to yours off of google or in pms I don't mind

 

[Deleted member 27148]

Yeah, I'll post it here. You guys tell me how it is. My body is pretty muscular & I wear baggy shit so people don't notice this usually. I'm also kind of afraid to go shirtless/wear tight clothes cus of it lol despite my back being muscular

 

[LowTrust]

yeah yours is a bit worse than mine, or it could be the same tilt but my body is more straight because of the tilted head making my whole body lean forward more rather than just lower spine, are you planning to get surgery for yours? Cause it seems like it would ascend hard if it gives you 2 inches, that's almost the amount you'd get from LL

I'm only 16 and my back is like jfl. I'm planning on starting physical therapy in 2 weeks to get it fixed within 6 months with no surgeries. I also have a slight nerd neck and I'm fixing that as well.

One more thing is that with APT, your whole body tilts forward, so that could also be a reason.

ah cool, if it is better than what yours is do you think it will be possible to fix it with at home physical therapy or is it required to pay and see someone who specializes in it

I think I'll go to someone that specializes in it and then just dip once I learn what exercises I do

 

[Red Fox]

it only works if you have some degree of lordosis or scoliosis though

 

[GrowthReaper]

holy shit I can't imagine how happy you are right now. I'd murder entire nations to gain 9cm

 

[Deleted member 1901]

I’m happy for you. Hopefully it you gain that much height.

 

[Red Fox]

I’m happy for you. Hopefully it you gain that much height.

Thank you! In the meantime, I found out I need more scans/x-rays to determine how “movable” my spine is, and how close my nerves are to the bone/plates

9.6cm is actually the absolute maximum (but still possible hopefully), improvement potential might also be as little as 4cm, because if there are nerves that are too close to the bone, you can’t operate there (too risky, might literally not be able to move anymore if things go wrong). I will get more scans in 2 weeks! Tbh, I’d be happy with anywhere in the middle between 4cm and 9.6cm! So like 6.5cm

How much do u think i can gain
