Hi mam, Yes swimming is good for him. Although your son is in grade three obesity, but good thing is, as boys hit puberty their lean mass increases helping them to increase in height and decrease in fat. If you want him to be fit and healthy, just concentrate on healthy diet patterns and 1-2hours daily physical activities. For further queries and treatment plan, connect directly through Practo consultation or WhatsApp at 93139     33661 Regards Dr Suman Mohan
