Hi. my age 18 and i'm 187 cms tall. i'm much worried about my height. is there anything that i can do to stop growing further?

Not really unless: If you are female and 18, most likely you have stopped growing. You should check with doctor to make sure you do not have some rare disorder related to growth.
