Can you tell me how i can prevent chin from getting bigger during puberty?

Not much...: There really isn't anything you can do to prevent your chin from growing how your genes "tell" it to. To a large extent, we are pre-programmed by our genetics to look a certain way when we become adults. Certainly added weight can make a chin larger, so maintaining a healthy weight can help. Hope that helps!

My son is 14 year old boy.At 7 years old he had a head injury on the back, he didn't pass out so I didn't go to the ER. He's in puberty and he's scared he is never going to get tall, as recorded he only grew 1 inch from 13-14. Should I see a doctor?
