Q: my grandson has a misformed chest. spine also affected. one rib missing and couple of ribs fused and not symmetric. will he need treatment?

Chest &amp; spine: issues need to be monitored by your grandson's baby doctor. He/she will keep an eye on what is happening and treat as needed. Catching things early on as they develop can make things easier. Peace and good health.
