For some reason I feel this bone
protruding ever-so-slightly from the
upsidedown 'v' of my sternum. I guess I
just noticed this and wasn't sure if this
was normal or not. I'm 15 by the way.
Thanks

It might just be the way your body is
changing at the moment, but if you are
concerned, then get it checked out with
your Dr.

Sounds like a normal variant of the
xyphoid process. Which means "kind of
unusual, but not harmful." but you can
ask the doctor at your next check up. Go
sooner if it gets bigger, but I doubt it
will.
