Hello, considering surgical treatment. Chicken breast is caused by congenital dysplasia, malnutrition, congenital heart disease and rickets. Chicken breasts are mostly caused by rickets in children, that is, vitamin D deficiency in the body hinders the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, causes osteomalacia, invaginates the joint between chest ribs and sternum, and makes the sternum protrude, forming chicken breasts. Children under 3 years old should be actively given anti-rickets treatment, including most sequelae, and calcium and vitamin D treatment is ineffective. Generally mild chicken breast will gradually disappear with the growth of the body. Strengthening physical exercise, such as chest expansion exercise, push-ups and head-up exercise, two or three times a day, can accelerate the correction of deformity. If the chicken breast is serious and affects the respiratory circulation, surgery is needed.
Guiding opinions:
Chicken breast caused by rickets is a bone change caused by long-term vitamin D deficiency, and it needs to be checked for bone alkaline phosphatase to make a diagnosis. The baby should be supplemented with cod liver oil half a month after birth to prevent rickets.
