Excuse me, I am 18 years old and I think I may have this. My chest is pretty sunken in and when I was younger I experienced lots of chest pain attacks. Every doctor suggests I have no problem somehow but I could literally eat cereal from the bowl in my chest.. How can I truly get this off my mind or confirm if it’s true?

I have not felt the pain since almost exactly last year, it’s probably less of a problem as I think more people would consider mine “mild” compared to severe cases I have seen. No pediatric nurses ever recommended seeing surgeons for a consultation but I think it would be best if I checked up on them, thanks.

It’s not a severe case but at this point it might be body image issues that are bothering me. As stated in other comments I workout fine but wish this dip was ya know, not there at all.

I might see a specialist, and geez that saw sounds very scary. I wish you a speedy recovery!

Yeah I suppose it’s minor, since mid-teens I tried my own breathing ways to compress my sternum out or do certain push up positions. It may be cosmetic at this point (The chest pains stopped since a year)
