Patient's question:
My son is 1.5 years old. He has a sunken sternum. When I listen to his breathing, it feels a bit rough. Is it related to the sunken sternum? I would like to ask the doctor, what should be done about the sunken sternum? Will it have any impact?Doctor's answer:
If there is a concavity in the sternum, it may be due to a deformity that makes you feel frustrated. Now, you must make him produce more calcium. Eat more kelp and shrimp paste. These are things you can eat. Usually, you can eat more of them, and if it still cannot be controlled, you can also take some vitamin D. In some cases, certain operations may be needed in the later stage for the appearance. Of course, this is necessary and there is no way around it. In fact, there is no particular impact, it only affects the appearance.
