this is most likely scoliosis I have this condition, I was sent for tests to confirm it and was offered an operation to straighten the spine but refused as the operation is very risky . doctors still don't know the main cause of scoliosis it literally is just "one of these things", and contradictary to myths scoliosis is not caused by bad posture. it can also be diagnosed at any age. do not worry about this if you have it, it doesn't restrict movement or quality of life :)
30 degrees at the base near the tailbone, also known as the "arch" in your back.
There are four spinal curve, 2 of which are convex ) and the other 2 are concave (
1. cervical curve = convex, primary
2. thoracic curve = concave, secondary
3. lumbar curve = convex, primary
4. sacral curve = concave, secondary
The primary curves are present at birth, the secondary curves only develop later when the child starts to walk
Sternum, ribs, coastal cartilages and thoracic vertebrae
The four regions of the spine are the cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, and sacrum, which includes the coccyx.

Sternum which is composed of manubrium, gladiolus, and xiphoid process. Ribs Costal cartilage Thoracic vertebrae
thoracic cage
The lungs are surrounded by the bones of the thoracic cage. The thoracic cage consists of the following bones:12 pairs of rib12 thoracic vertebrasternum
that portion of total ventilatory compliance ascribable to compliance of the thoracic cage

Yep, the ribs are what make up the thoracic cage.
The thoracic cage protects the organs that are contained within it.

d. Thoracic cage
The part of the skeleton enclosing the thorax, consisting of the thoracic vertebrae, ribs, coastal cartilages, and sternum.

Ribs
The human rib cage, also known as the thoracic cage
The rib cage, or thoracic cavity, contracts with the help of the internal intercostal muscles to aid in expiration (exhalation).
