Question
Hi, I am a 13 year old boy .Well my shoe size is 11(UK) 11
and a half (USA).My height is about 5 feet 11 inches.At
what age will the growth of my feet stop and how much
bigger will my feet grow and is there a way to stop the
growth of feet artificially or naturally

Answer
Hi! I am afraid that there is anything that can be done to stop this. Most of the times this is genetically controlled i.e. coming from your father or mother. I am sure after 13 this should slow down and of course completely after 16-18 years.

Best,

Biology
