Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You might be having congenital chest wall deformity. In this ribs and intercostal muscles are not develop fully and remain under developed.
Honestly speaking, no treatment is required and also no treatment is available for such maldevelopment of chest wall.
You have also crossed age of bone growth (18 years). After this age, growth in bones is not possible because growing ends of bone are fused and further growth is not there.
So at your age of 22 years, it is not possible to grow the chest.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
