What Causes Bulging Out Of Ribs?

So my left rib comes out funny and I never thought anything about it until my mom mentioned it. I thought it was perfectly normal, I mean I new it was different but it's never bothered me before. The only thing about it that bothers me is a little half rib bone that sticks in at the bottom and sometimes hurts when I'm working out. I am 5-7 and in good shape, except a recent acl surgery along with a meniscus repair done about 2 weeks ago. I've had my shoulder dislocated and my radius on my wrist fractured but this was all in the last year, have nothing to do with my ribs and my ribs have been like this for years. I have bruised my ribs and my sternum before, but again that was only last summer. I am five days from 16, female and I played basketball on varsity
