为什么使用顶部或底部会降低元素的高度？

Question

I'm trying to position an icon responsively which is part of a plugin in WordPress.

Using margin-top and margin-bottom works to position the icon further down the page, but top and bottom above 10px seems to reduce the height of the icon when used in conjunction with position: relative;

@media(max-width: 768px) {
    #a2a_share_save_widget-3 {
        position: relative !important;
        top: 20px !important;
        left: 95%;
        margin-left: -37px;
        background-color: transparent! important;
        color: transparent! important;
    }
}

If I reduce top to 10px , the icon goes back to full height again.

Html:

<div id="a2a_share_save_widget- 3" class="widget widget_a2a_share_save_widget">
    <div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list">
        <a class="a2a_dd a2a_counter addtoany_share_save addtoany_share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share"></a>.
    </div>
</div>

What I want is to apply top or bottom to adjust position, not icon height.

The issue is not with regards to the share widget's height being reduced. The issue is that overflow: hidden is given to its ancestor section - the share widget is technically overflowing and parts of it are hidden.

So to solve this, either remove/override the property overflow: hidden from section

#content section {
    overflow: visible;
}

or have the widget's container take X amount of minimum height

div#main {
    min-height: 80px;
}

I imagine you want to increase specificity as these examples are generic terms and you are using a wordpress theme
