out of curiosity
My rib hump changed after 20+ years! We are older and our bones can become weaker. I plan to ask Dr. Lenke for a brace to wear some of the time for the next couple of years. I am working with a osteoporosis specialist to help strengthen my bones. Remember, people shrink some with age. Our ribs can shift depending on the forces pulling on them. When we are rotated, it can change the pull on our ribs, which is what cause the original hump. If your curve is staying put, so will your rib cage. The rib cage is not fused, nor would you want it to be, because it is helping with your breathing. They cut pieces out of mine, trying to make it less sharp. It helped but it also made my rib cage more ridged. Oh, to be rid forever of that dreaded rib hump!!! Best to all
