Very low probability for height increase at this age. There are surgeries which increase height; however they are painful and are recommended only for people who have a defective height/limb length (eg one leg shorter than the other)
It is not at all indicated for normal individual. Your height of 5.5 is appropriate for your age and gender. Kindly continue your daily activities.
