well, bone tumors specially affect the young ages, we need to Xray his middle finger for a growth, bone tumors often metastasize to lungs. We need to examine him for features of excess growth hormones too and he may be having chest pain related to some heart problems that accompany excess growth hormone. Need more information though.
