Could it be a growth disorder?

I am a 18 year old male, 115 pounds and 5'5. My mom is 5'5 and my dad is 6'1. According to the boys growth chart which can be found here: http://www.waytogrowonline.org/Common/Pa...

I fall under the 5th percentile. I've always had a poor appeitite. I haven't gained weight/grown for at least two years. When I compare my new drivers license to my old one the new one actually makes me look younger. I haven't grown out of any clothing. I can still wear the shirts/pants I wore in 8th grade if i wanted to.

I starting to believe I have a problem with my growth.

Should I go to the doctor and see if there is something wrong with me? Can anyone relate to this? I can't stand looking so young. You are treated as a child.

Thanks for your time.
