What Causes Crooked Ribs After A Gynecomastia Surgery?

I recently had a gynecomastia surgery and I noticed that one of my ribs on my right side feels like it is crooked. The surgery is not the cause of it, but I feel like having gynecomastia during puberty had caused one of my ribs to be slightly crooked because of the tissue being there. I feel more of the bone sticking out on my right side while my left side feels normal. Is there a doctor that help realign it without surgery?

Hello,

I think if the problem is only cosmetic and not interfering in breathing. You should consult a physiotherapist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
