You have to consult a physiotherapist . * this condition occur bcoz of trauma , muscle weakness , * abdominal muscle weakness bcoz it play a wide role in holding rib cage in place , if one side of abdominal muscle become weak it will lead to rib cage stick out or unevenly sit ,on that side.
Next Steps
Yoga for posture Abdominal crunches Ab rollouts Breathing exercise Pectoral lifts
Health Tips
It’s good when you do these exercises under observation of physical therapist.
