Does allergies causes reduction in body size? if yes what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: In growing children large doses of Prednisone used control your allergies or asthma may affect adult height. For inhaled steroids used for asthma control this rarely is the case in clinical practice. When it does adult height may be reduced by about 1 centimeter. If this is not the question you wish answered please consult your primary care health provider.
