Will a 6-year-old child's slightly rounded chest become serious in the future?

Patient's question:

The child is now six years old and has slightly puffy breasts. I don't know if it will get worse in the future.

Doctor's answer:

This situation may involve pigeon chest or other chest diseases. You can try gently pressing to see if there is tenderness. If it is pigeon chest, it is recommended to consume more digestible calcium in the early stage. If there is a noticeable protrusion, it is advisable to have the child checked at the hospital. You can also take the child to the hospital for regular check-ups to monitor their overall development. It is also recommended to supplement with cod liver oil.
