Who To Consult Incase Of Abnormal Ribcage?
I have an abnormal rib cage. Instead of having more of a flat, broad torso, It s more narrow and sticks out. My shoulders slouch forward, and my collar bones are not straight across. Who would I need to consult with, and is there anything that can be done?

Hello,
Firstly you need to meet up and orthopedist who will assess you and guide for x-ray or MRI which so ever is needed post assessing you clinically.
Post that you will be asked to undergo certain exercises under the guidance of the Physiotherapist who will help correct the biomechanics of the bones, joints, and muscles.
Which will help you correct the current symptoms to a greater extent?
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
