Hi. I surmise I enjoy Pectus Excavatum?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pectus_Exca...
Ok that looks disgusting, it's NOT that dented, but my chest is slightly cave in. The weird point is my doctor probably knows about it since he have checked my heart, and I have taken my shirt off within front of him but he's never said anything. Should I do anything about this? I'm 17 and male. I found out just about this after reading this guy's biography:

Answers: Did you actually read the first site? It says that teens enjoy a tendency to have avery denial body image because of it. That it is typically COSMETIC Rather than functional? That unless you are having chest or support pain, shortness of breath that it does not apply to you. If your doctor has see it and has not shown any concern or even mentioned it to you for that matter; unless he/she is a quack you are fine. Stop worrying and DONT self diagnose..
You do want to read the whole site. You are worrying about something that is to say not worth your time. There is a place in New York that offers a alien soft brace for the back. It's better to get some sort of brace, the closer the better, you're young and guys still grow until age 20. So watch the info. here: http://www.spinecorspecialists.com/?gcli...
Also, amazon.com have a device for $35 that looks like a good impression for most people with discouraging posture, just check with a chiropractor first... It's call the SPINE-WORX BACK REALIGNMENT DEVICE, by Spineworx. You have to lie down on it for 10 min. everyday, a moment ago read all the great customer reviews below the item.
A lot of skinny guys have rather bit of a dent, maybe you'll be O.K. with occasional "adjustments" to your posture at the chiropractor's organization. Try not to worry, I know you're at a stressful age, your doctor says you're robust. But, you can call your doctor (and tell him the baptize of the condition you've read about if you want) and ask him for a recommendation for a Chiropractor. Or merely call 1-8OO-doctors for a referral. Also, check the newspaper, because nearby are always ads next to cupons for Chiropractor clinics..
Go and see a different doctor and ask him specifically about it. Doctors probably assume you have already have it checked out and don't want to mention it in case you are sensitive in the region of it.
