hi growth after 22 is not much. but don't need to worry, its also affected by genetic factors ,  your physical activity is more important than appearance if you have an abnormal short stature you can consult an endocrinologist

Height is based on your growth harmone and it's also heriditary, if your parents and ancestors are short you will be short. You can consult an endocrinologist for details on your growth harmone.
