What Causes Growing Chest Like Woman, Nipples And Surrounding Area Looking Enlarged?

My son is 24 years old. For several years his chest has been growing more like a woman's. His nipples and the surrounding area look enlarged, like a woman's breasts. He just showed them to me again and I was shocked at the size. He looks like he has size B cup breasts. What can cause this? Is it serious?
