Dear lybrateuser, You should do following exercises: Hands are placed behind the head and fingers interlocked. The elbows are pulled back as much as possible and the head and neck needs to remain straight. This posture causes the chest to fill out in front. Bend from the hips, forward and down, to a horizontal position. This position is held for 2-3 seconds. It is very important that the elbows, head, and neck remain straight during the exercise. Strengthening the Chest and Back Muscles Do 25 push-ups each day. Another exercise to strengthen the chest muscles: Lie with your back on the floor and with arms stretched out on each side. Place small weights in each hand. Keeping arms straight, bring them together over the chest. Do this exercise 25 times each Deep Breathing with Breath Holding: Do this exercise in the morning and evening. Stand up straight with the shoulders pulled back. Breathe in as deeply as possible and hold your breath for 10 seconds. Repeat 20 times. Remember: Total exercise time should be no more than 10 minutes. This exercise program will not cure a severe pectus excavatum; however, it will help to correct poor posture, prevent progression of a mild pectus excavatum, make surgical correction easier and help prevent recurrence after bar .
