Smoked hookah heavily before my big growth spurt, now my jaws and other body bones are underdeveloped.possible that i stunted my growth? can i fix it?

Nope: At 23, your growth is done and over with. There is nothing you can do at this point to improve growth. You can get your bone health better by eating an excellent diet, getting enough calcium and vitamin D, stopping ANY drugs that are not prescribed by your doctor and exercising every day as this goes a long way in improving bone density.
