Pectus carinatum is a childhood condition in which the sternum (breastbone) sticks out more than usual. It is believed to be a disorder of the cartilage that joins the ribs to the breastbone.
I'm 16 and I have a very severe case that you can see even when I'm wearing a jacket. I tried two braces over a span of two years with absolutely no results other than extreme pain. Last week I saw a new doctor who told me that my chest had hardened prematurely and my case was much too severe for a brace. I will be having the surgery next month and I'm truly so excited to finally be free. Years of insecurity will finally be over. To anyone who's suffering through this terrible condition I'm sorry but there is light at the end of the tunnel
I have a slight case of this Pectus Carinatum. Kinda sucks, dont want my shirt off infront of girls because they might notice and laugh.
I have never taken my shirt off at the pool that’s how embarrassed I am of having this
I have Pectus Carinatum on one side of my chest it wouldn't be as bad if I had it on both sides. This video helped me out a lot.
In spanish plys??
It's weird that in America tons of people know about this but in the UK hardly anyone knows about other than doctors.
I am 15 years old, and I have this, I tried working out and wearing a case for it, but it didn't work, yes, it reduced it, but not a lot. Some doctors are telling me that there is time to fix it through working out, but is started to have an in pact on my back. Another doctor told me I need surgery and I am in fact a little late. I don't know what to do, so I came to see if anyone can help me out.
I have it and I don’t really care
I need a brace
I’ve been wearing my brace for almost seven months for 20 hours a day and have seen massive improvement. The doctor says I will be out of the brave in about a month or two. I can’t wait for it to be over. Reading these comments makes me grateful that mine was not half as severe.
Thank you so much for this information. One of my best friends has Pectus Carinatum so now I know what it is exactly.
I have this (mild) but severe scapular winging, rib flare and diastisis recti. What can and should I do?
How much does pectus carinatum (pigeon chest) surgery cost ?
Does your age effect how long you have to wear the brace
My chest also seem like that boys chest how can I get a treatment please help me.....
I had pigeon chest defect as a child and 6 years old this pediatrician said it was symptom of an artial septatl defect
I have that on one side only what could I do
I have a slight case but I am glad because I can show it off and I play with it by squeezing my chest making it pop out or putting pressure on it to cave in I constantly do this and others find it weird or even fascinating.
¿Tratamientos en Perú?... esta condición a mi autoestima a golpeado mucho.. no puedo ponerme la ropa que me gusta. Me es muy molestoso. De adolescente pensaba que era normal.. me preguntaba por que era así mi esternón, algunas personas tbm y no sabía que responder. Claro no esta tan exagerado.. pero se nota, y no me gusta. Tengo 30 años de vivir con esa condición y pues con el tiempo viví aceptándolo , que es mi cuerpo así... pero bueno. Igual nunca es tarde. ¿Si existiera tratamiento a mi edad quisiera saberlo. De todas maneras gracias. Un abrazo.
Preciso saber como chegar a esses médicos onde fica,por favor
