First and most obvious way to gain 1-2" is improve your posture, stand straight and tall.
You can also wear shoes with "lifts" inserted which can put an extra 2" on.
At 22 you are very unlikely to grow any more and you just have to come to terms with that.
One other thing, when you talk to people taller than you stand bak a little bit so the height difference is not obvious.

No it is not. On the ends of each and every bone within the body there are plates of cartilage called epiphyseal, or 'development' plates. It's from these plates that growth happens, as soon as these have entirely ossified (become bone) upto age 20, there is not any method of inducing more growth or increasing the length of bone which might directly broaden your top, even with hGH. Nonetheless as you become older the volume of synovial fluid which is contained inside every joint 'synovial membrane' decreases, which causes the condition osteoarthritis, and likewise gives the appearance of shrinking, or lowering in height.

Male stops growing around 21.It is not possible to increase height by either exercise or medicine.If you go after medicine you will loose only money.But 5-5 is ok.You can use high shoes.

I'm 5'3 and I think I'm just fine. Watch Time Bandits with me and chill out.
Actually you may be able to help me with a question, I find that short women tend to go for tall men (6'+).
All my (female) partners have been much taller than me 5'6-5'8. Has anyone got a reason why?

Of course not.
Your height is genetically determines, and by your age, you're reached that point.
Besides, there is nothing about size that matters, except the size of your heart and your caring.
