josie54 Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 Don't panic! You're 13 and still growing. Your body may be adjusting to your growth and your chest hasn't quite adapted yet. There's something called "gynomastia" that sometimes occurs in very active young men going through puberty--it's like what you describe and it most often passes on its own. I know this is of little comfort in the locker room with your classmates, but you'll probably grow out of this very soon. If you're really worried, talk to someone (a parent, coach, or family doctor) for further reassurance. I'm certainly not a doctor, and if anything seems wrong, you'll need to bring it up with an adult, preferably a physician. But again, don't panic!
