Uneven chest in male 17yrs old

by lisak941, Mar 17, 2009 08:26AM
I hope I can describe this correctly...my 17 year old son is thin and about 5'9" tall.  His chest is uneven, the left side of his chest is higher than his right side. Not muscle, its his ribcage or sternum. It does not fit into the description of pigeon chest or funnel chest since one side is higher than the other. It has always been like this, so no recent injury, but has become more noticeable as he is thinner than before. He has no symptoms. Thank you in advance for your help!
