If one side of your chest bone (sternum) is sticking out more than the other, it may indicate a condition known as pectus carinatum, or "pigeon chest." This condition can result from abnormal growth of the rib cage and may affect the aesthetics of the chest, but it typically does not cause serious health issues. In some cases, it can lead to discomfort or respiratory problems if it is severe. Consulting with a healthcare professional can provide guidance on possible treatments or interventions.
