Noticed A Dull & Reddish Looking Marks On The Chest

My 11 yr old son likes to work/play on his laptop while laying down with the laptop on his chest. There are dull reddish looking marks around where his heart is (left breast area, left of nipple and extending down just below breast moving towards other breast). Should I be alarmed over this? The marks aren t solid but rather squiggly with regular skin color through out the squiggly reddish lines I didn t realize it was a pay-answer. I don t have money right now. I m sorry for wasting your time. Thankyou kindly though

Hi,
Your question has been put in public forum,
Your 11 years old son ,pitting laptop on his chest& playing for hours together! It's defenate to have pressure marks on the young ones chest! Though it does not seem to be harmful yet,I would advice you to dis encourage him from the position hence forwarad.
Laptop being an electromagnetic instrument can be harmful because of the waves & it's nearness to heart.( they even bann putting mobile phones being put in chest pocket of shirt!)
Thanks.
