try using output buffering. For example:

header( 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' );

while ($row = $strSql->fetch_assoc()) {
      $rows[]=$row;
       foreach($rows as $row){
            $words1=$row['words'];
            echo '
 ';
            echo $words1;
            echo '
';
            flush();
            ob_flush();
            sleep(5);
           }
       }
