Question
My son is 21 years old and has an uneven chest, resembling a funnel chest, but he shows no signs of illness. How should we handle this situation?
Answer
If the funnel chest is not severe, does not affect the internal organs, and does not interfere with daily life, there is no need for special treatment. However, since children have weaker body resistance, they are more prone to developing a funnel chest. Parents should take their child to a professional hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner and take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication under the doctor’s guidance.
