FWIW, my brother has had growing feet and hands for many years now. He's in his 60s. They found that he had a growth on his pituitary gland which was causing growth hormones to be released into his body at a much higher than normal rate, causing the feet and hands to grow excessively. They recently removed the growth and has body is now returning to normal. He said he feels better than he has in many years, and that the doctors say there is a very good chance that his feet and hands will slowly "retract" to their normal size, before the growth hormones caused them to grow so much.

For those who are experiencing such growth it may be worth talking to your doctor about. I'm 71 years old and mine are not growing at all, and are the same size they were when I was 25.
