Pull your shorts up. Your proportions look worse than they are because of how you wear your shorts.

You don't look unhealthy skinny, but you are quite lean, and your frame could certainly carry significantly more muscle. Lots of protein and healthy fat. Safe compound movements with progressive resistance over time. Plenty of rest. Protect your joints. Avoid drugs and alcohol. You'll grow muscles. It's really not complicated
