well, pectus excavatum explains a lot.
apparently parents with kids born with it are not told much,
however as you grow older things really start getting compressed...
but the cavity in my chest isn't that deep...
suppose i should have known my rib cage wasn't like others.
...i did, but when it's all you know...
you know?
hey, i do this!
"Normally, the chest wall expands when a child inhales, allowing more air to move in to the lungs. In some patients with pectus excavatum, however, the middle of the chest seems to deepen rather than expand during inhalation. Doctors call this paradoxical chest wall motion."
this explains so freakin' much it blows my mind.
