Hi... Various reasons are there.. right from genetic susceptibility to growth hormonal issues.. Since you are now 22 it is bot possible to increase height as bone would have atai Ed it's complete growth... It is possible to gain healthy weight.. I suggest you to meet a nutritionist and plan your diet. Join a good gym and work for muscle hypertrophy... Hope this is helpful for you... Revert back incase you need any further clarification...
