Question on digital sum of the square of n$n$

If we set $f(n)=$ the digital sum of n,for$n$,for example, $f(2024)= 2+0+2+4= 8$.

Are there any $n>375501$ in solutions to the equation $f(n^2)=9$ ,$f(n^2)=9,$ except $n=10k$, $n=10^a+10^b+1$, $n=5 \cdot 10^a+1$ or $n=10^a+5$  ? ($k,a,b$ are integers, $k>0$, $a \ge b \ge 0$)

or can it be proved that there are only limited nontrivial $n$ such $f(n^2)=9$ ?

And when $f(n^2)=m$, $m=4,7,10,11\ldots$$m=4,7,10,11,\ldots$ whether such $n$ is still limited or not ?

(if $f(n^2)\equiv m \pmod 9$, then $n^2 \equiv m \pmod 9$, only when $m \equiv 0,1,4,7 \pmod 9$ there are integer solutions $n$)

trivial solution : if $f(n^2)=m$, then $f((10 n)^2)=m$,else if $n=A \times 10^k+B$ and $B^2<10^k$, $2AB<10^k$, $f(n)=m$, let $N= A \times 10^{k+1}+B$ then $f(N^2)=f(n^2)=m$

so these solutions like $10 n$ or $N$ are trivial to some degree.
