The being overweight part.

HAVE YOUR PARENTS TAKE HIM TO A PHYSICIAN.
First of all, he needs to be on a good diet and exercise program if he is not on one already. Unless there is some kind of a hormonal disorder causing him to be overweight (pretty rare), there is not any excuse for letting a 10 year old get to the point where his weight is causing pain and other health problems.
GET HELP FOR HIM NOW!

the cause could be the fact he is overweight, if thats the case a balanced diet and exercise should help without the pressures of faddy diets to be thin like some youngesters have.
It could also be hormonal, boys so normally brow some sort of breast tissue but it normally goes away after puberty...
Hope this helps

Very normal for a male child this age to have "breasts" that are swelled because of his start to maturity. Just tell him they will go down when the hormones get in balance and it might take a little time. Once his voice starts changing, he can expect his breasts to go down and his dick to grow! That should perk him up!

I think it would be because your brother is very over weight and all the fat has to go somewhere.your brother is not made to carry
the weight of boobs and this is causing the pain.your brother need to lose some seriours weight because his weight is affecting is body and causing alot of health issues. start him on a diet right now and kick this over weight in the A*S.make sure he stickes to his diet.

he may have a hormonal condition.... not many overwieght people really have hormonal problems, but some really do. your parents should take him to the doctor, for 2 reasons... first to check for any thyroid or other hormonal problems, and also to check his cholesterol, and perhaps to talk about his weight issues and get a healthy eating & exercise program going.
it's hard for kids to be overweight.
good luck to him

He may have a problem with his pituitary gland. If possible have him go to an endocrinologist. If you Insurance is an HMO then you need to go to your primary and get a referral

The cause is your 10 year old brother's appetite. Sign him up for the gym. And start giving him more hops and barley.

there can be many factors. First stay away from soy products bc it has estrogen in it. It sounds he is developing pre diabetic sytoms. diabetes is a painful disease. He needs to loose weight or he will suffer more.
