Suggest Treatment For Enlarged Aortic Root And Sunken Chest

My 16 year old son was diagnosied with an enlarged aortic root 3.5cm, he will go through other testing and also has a sunken chest. They said it could be a connective tissue issue. While I m waiting for further testing are there supplements that help strengthen connective tissue or veins?

HI
Well come to HCM
I appreciate your concern for your son, actually there is not such supplement available that could strengthen the connective tissue or veins but staple food could do the job, one more thing it is to be confirmed that it should be connective tissue disease, hope this information helps, take care, have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
