Is it a concern if i can see my sons heartbeat through his chest while resting? no chest pain or sob

Not a concern.: It's very unlikely that this represents a problem. Children's hearts beat more vigorously than adults' hearts do, and their chest wall is thinner, so the pulsations of the chest are more prominent. Your pediatrician can confirm your son's heart is normal by listening to it with a stethoscope.
