Does anyone's child have a chest that looks like the sternum may be in a bit further than normal? A sort of a concave chest look? My child is rbpi. Thank you.

sometimes this happens to children with severe asthma... did you child have diaphragm involvement? (I believe that is C4) if so- that would probably be why.

Ask your specialist and let us know ok?

btw - welcome! :)
