Rib ectropion is mostly caused by calcium deficiency and vitamin D deficiency during adolescence, and is commonly known as chicken breast or funnel chest.

So in the teenage years should pay attention to calcium, not picky about what to eat, balanced nutrition, so that you can grow up healthy.

Precautions for rib ectopia

The neighborhood of the lowest edge of the chest contour is the most common location for rib ectopia to occur in the human body. This is mainly because the lowest edge of the rib cage is connected to the diaphragm, a layer of muscle that separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity.

When there is a vitamin D deficiency or when the rib cage is not fully developed, the rib cage may be ectropion, that is, the lowest edge of the chest contour, beyond the range of the entire chest contour, the lowest edge of the chest on both sides of the obvious bulge, and the range is large.
