According to your description of this situation, pigeon chest is generally caused by sequelae of rickets, leading to chest deformity. Generally, it will not affect height. If the pigeon chest is mild, it usually does not interfere with health and often does not require treatment. Regarding height, it is generally unrelated to pigeon chest. Most cases are due to generational inheritance factors, nutritional status, many endocrine diseases in the body, and so on.
