Question
My child is over 4 years old and has been diagnosed with pigeon chest. How should we handle this situation?
Answer
The patient is a male, over 4 years old, in good health condition. When he was over a year old, it was discovered that the lowest two ribs were abnormally outward. After checking at various hospitals, it was said that there was a calcium deficiency, so calcium supplements were taken. This has continued uninterrupted, and now the condition persists with a depression in the sternum area.
