Q: Im a 14 year old male with pectus excavatum. I hate it and was wondering how much does surgery cost and would it be covered by the NHS? And can special excercises make it less noticable?

A: I can’t submit links, but go to google, type in pectus excavatum, and the first 3 links are great.My boyfriend has PE and when he was about your age (we’re in our 20s now) he decided not to do the surgery: too much risk. His heart is shifted slightly to the left and I don’t think he can take huge breaths (he has to do it in two stages), but other than that, he doesn’t have anything life-threatening.Working out your pectoral muscles might help lessen the appearance of the concavity, but in some guys it may make it worse. I think if you ask maybe a physical therapist, they might know. There are pectus excavatum websites out there and a fair amount of people with this condition put up their exercise regimens/routines so that may be of help. Not sure what NHS is, but I do know that if you’re under 18, Shriners hospitals will cover all your costs, even if you don’t have insurance. If you meet with a specialist to discuss the possible surgery (there are two main types I think) then you’ll get estimates for pricing. At the end of the day, it’s your body and your life. This is a decision that no one else can make for you. Good luck.
