  1. Usually by age 21-24 most people have stopped growing.....

    X-rays can be done to determine if your growth plates have filled in...a physician or oral surgeon could determine this with the correct x-rays.


  2. Once you have finished growing taller your jaw has stopped growing. But males can continue to grow even up to age 20 or so. The best way to determine if you have stopped growing is a bone age x-ray of your wrist.


  3. your whole head never stops growing if you keep taking drugs like marijuana and other inhaled drugs

    hopefully you don't but a lot of kids do these days and have humungous foreheads and or heads generally

    I have seen guys in the projects that have melons the size of small glaciers and they just keep right on lighting up those trees...

    it's a shame, really...
