Concerned about bone growth.

[Bugz]

I'm not a doctor or anything so I may be overreacting but what I've noticed in my teenage years is that the growth of my bones seems to be much slower than others. For example, when comparing my arm with another, it is visible to me that they have greater arm bones so to speak. This also occurs massively with my hands, feet & the bottom of my legs(I have the smallest hands in my year and there's easily about 40 people smaller than me).

I'm a bit startled about this. I googled it and discovered a lot of cases are down to malnutrition but to be honest, I eat quite healthily and I eat alot (perhaps could fit in some more fruit/vegetables).

Am I just experiancing a late growth in terms of my bones (i'm experiancing a height growth but little to no bone growth)? Should I consider going to the Doctors to check it out?

Thanks for help.

Genetics genetics genetics and lets throw in some more genetics for good measure.

You're what, 16 going on 17?. Thats 4/5 years into puberty, theres at least another 5 to go until your bones are fully calcified and won't grow any more.

May be down to low testosterone, may just be you're a late bloomer so to speak.

If you're worried then see a doc but tbh i can't see any problems if you're smaller than other people.

I'm nearly 6ft 2 and my feet are size 8.

My hands are tiny, they call my girly hands at work, but i just say they're like pistons!

I'm 12 stone so that ain't to bad. I'd check it out if your worried, you pay for the NHS so use it

Don't know if its much help !

But on topic.. When I was 16 I was not that tall.. I'm now turning nineteen and I'm 1,96cm

i wonder how many people are going to ask here before someone realises FH is not a place to get accurate info for your health problems

 

[Raven]

Wrong diagnoses are very common, no problem!

 

[Himse]

You are probably fine, your hands etc will probably develop later on.

Like for example, i am skinny, and was quite little up until year 10 ish, then i just grew like a motherfucker, now im about 5'9 ft from like 5'5, i have stretch marks where i grew too quickly

Sorry still friends?

 

[Huntingtons]

you're hands are not growing coz theres too little blood flow. wank more and they'll grow humongorus (sp?)!

 

[Coldbeard]

You actually go around worrying about "bone growth"? Geez.

 

[CorNokZ]

Holy shit you're 1,96cm tall? Thats as big as one of my fingertips!

Yeah and I fuck Thumbelina all the time

There is one really easy answer to all this kinds of question.. Everyone growth in their own speed. Before you're all done in puberty, which you are not at the age of 16/17, just wait. Anything could happend.. Come back when you're 25 and still worried and you might wanna check it out

 

[psyco]

bugz, you should really stop getting over concerned about things

 

[fl3a]

i can grow a boner quite easily, and so should any other young man. i think you should go see a doctor.

Well if doctors were as witty as folks here they wouldn't have the competition.

Well if people keep asking questions about course work, we might do enough to get a doctorate
