A member asked:
Hello my wrists are super thin and im skinny overall im 22 y.o. im wondering if they'll grow in girth because no one in my family has thin wrists ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: By age 22 your skeletal growth is done and most features are set. Your structure is dictated by a complex set of genetic factors from both sides of the family influenced by diet, illness and exercise.
