UsuallyTonsillitis is not responsible for stopped growth. Tonsillitis is Inflammation of the tonsils and is usually no problem after surgical removal. Tonsillitis usually can be the cause of bad breathe in the AM and snoring. In the way of growth both age and hormones deal with that. Usually the largest amount of growth is during the time of puberty also age is different between males and females for puberty. If you believe that you are to young to have stopped growth you should schedule an appointment with your doctor to discuss this at which point your doctor should do a series of exams to determine the cause of the growth stop or pause.
