[|Human|] Hello. I have had a question about this for quite a while now. Ive had this condition since I was younger but up until about my sixteenth birthday nobody had noticed it but me. My chest, at least the left side, is drastically more pushed out by the bone than then other side. every now and again it hurts but nothing so extreme that I cannot move or function. Is this dangerous? And is there a procedure that can have this removed or taken care of?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, you are having spinal deformity which is giving appearance of big left sided chest pain. This kind of deformity can cause musculoskeletal pain. So better to consult orthopedic doctor and get done clinical examination of rib cage and spine. You will also need MRI of rib cage and spine. If this is suggestive of deformity then you will need surgical procedure to correct it. But if it is normal then nothing is needed. Apply warm water pad on affected areas and take painkiller like ibuprofen. Don't worry, you will be alright, consult orthopedic doctor and discuss all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
