Hello there.. be patient..Boys tend to grow till 18 to 20 years of age..However in your case as your mom and dad's height is also less the growth will be limited.. There's no medicine to increase the growth.. It all depends on the genetic factors.. So stop worrying about it.. You are fine the way you are.
