No Necessarily: Your height and head size are all genetically determined. Neutrition does play some role. For your height you should weigh weigh close to 160-170 lbs. if you do not have developmental and Learning problems while growing up and if you are already High school graduate , then the small size of head is not a problem; just a normal variant. Eat balanced food . Breakfast Lunch and dinner.
