Chest wall become more rigid with age?
As we age, there is a decrease in the flexibility and elasticity of the chest wall due to changes in the structure of the bones, cartilage, and connective tissue. This increased rigidity can lead to decreased chest wall compliance, making it harder for the lungs to expand fully and decreasing overall lung function. Regular physical activity and breathing exercises can help maintain flexibility in the chest wall and support lung function as we age.
