Hi.. You would need pectoralis muscle strenghthening exercise.. Firming the chest muscles can help you.. More definitive treatment can be obtained by surgical means.. See a doctor for evaluation and if needed for medical drugs or surgery...
hello, turmeric is more of a antiseptic. You need to do a panel of harmones to know why you are having gynecomastia.
It is also important to rule out infection. I would advise you to consult a endocrinologist in this regard and get to know the reason for the same. I hope i have answered your query. Take care
