I think your are a good height. If god in tented for you to be taller he would have made you taller. Be happy with what you have. Some people don't even have legs.

elevator shoes are temporary, however there is a radical operation available to people that want to increase their heights. It's somewhat painful and expesive for that matter. The doctor will come in and actually break your legs, put them in a brace and you will have to weight until the bone growth covers the break before you can regain your full movements. I think its close to 10 g's per inch, but I'm not to sure.

Ive never heard of stretching to make you get taller. There are growth hormones out there that you can get by a perscription, but they aren't given to people unless there is a SEVERE height problems such as dwarfism(which at 5'5, you do not have). 5'5 is shorter than average, but who cares anyways?

Dont think so - but let me know if you do! If you're looking for a more extreme solution, there is a real procedure called limb lengthening. Its painful and long. They screw an external metal frame into your bones and you give the frame a twist each day. Slowly, but shurely, you gain something like seven inches - crazy?!?!

Buy shoes with one inch heels OR buy some inserts to go in you shoes. To stretch your bones requires some SERIOUS orthopedic measures. Good luck. Pops

Can't increase your height at your age without surgery or platform shoes. Sorry.
