Question
What are the causes of newborn ribcage eversion?
Answer
If a newborn is found to have ribcage eversion around the age of 1, it may be due to a deficiency in calcium. It is suggested to continue administering calcium gluconate and Vitamin AD to the child for treatment. As the child grows older, this condition usually improves. Parents should not be overly concerned. In addition, bone deformities in infants can severely affect the patient’s quality of life. Apart from active treatment, daily care is also very important. Parents should ensure that the child gets enough rest and strengthens nutrition to avoid or reduce the chance of illness.
