Stretched bones or issues will be compressed back to before after a period of daily activities or you wanna keep in this state all day?

(ignoring that absurd, provocative, incel, retarded, uninformed, disrespectful comparison with leukemia and Parkinson)
But about the rest, why is that? Why people with 5""1 can't get LL??
Those with Constitutional Short Stature, CSS (the 2,3% shorter among their sxx in their population, like for example 5""1) are those that most need and serious hospitals prioratize (following people with diseases like dwarfism, achondroplasia, some other congénital, genetic disease, etc, or people amputated or severely hurt in accidents).
In fact it was for these, following WW2 that the procedure was invented, not for 5""9 tall people and other with totally normal lenght values (who may have height neurosis and whose option is to be respected however),
But purely cosmetic LL was considered medically unethical until years ago and even Ilizarov had a hard time justifying doing that for "not extremely short" people.
Why? Of course because it has risks and the first medical ethics principle is "I shall do no harm".
In fact I am 5""00, with height neurosis and otherwise healthy, like allmost all with CSS (it's a condition, not a disease). In fact, if I had less 4 cm I would have public funded paid LL even with no accompanying disease.
Your post is very unwise, you are surely misinformed and hurts people like me that are called like whom have no
hope and are a weird exception within the already exception of LLers.
Well, for those near lenght averages, lenght is a pure psychological issue. There are people that really suffer from Body Dismorphic Disease and who will never consider themselves tall enough.
That's also why serious doctors allways make or order a psychological assessment prior to LL (also to try to predict if the person will be resilient enough during the whole process).
Can you understand that a person like me, if I grow 10 cm would be happy? I had 3 girlfriends, have height neurosis but don't need to be "tall". I just want not to be "super short".

Height is driving me crazy beyond descriptions and the society is mistreating short men more than the disabled. LL can allow every man with every height to grow taller but just can lead to different results.
