Ribs Protruding From Skin?!
Question: Ribs Protruding From Skin!?
This is my first question asked here!.!.!. I couldn't find anything that would suffice on Google!.
To start, I am 14 year old male, nearing 15!. I'm 5"5, and around 115-120 pounds!. My figure seems fine, and I am in no way overweight!. My body doesn't displease me, other than the fact that I could tone my stomach and abs, (If I wasn't so lazy!.)
But why is that my bottom ribs protrude from the skin!? Not as in, literally ripping out, but both the left and right bottom rib are easily seen poking out!. From a front view, persay looking in the mirror; it looks normal!.!.!.
Is this because there is something with my rib-cage!?
Am I too skinny!?
No, I do not feel any pain!.
I don't think this is a huge problem, but WHY and HOW can I fix this!? I do not want my ribs to be showing through my upper stomach any longer!. I have only noticed this in the past few weeks!.
I may be growing!.!.!. Will this change in another few weeks!?

Answers:
Part of the male maturation process is the broadening of the shoulders and chest!. This will affect how the other parts of the skeleton will appear!. As the chest and rib cage start to shift and grow, there will be some displacement of the positioning of the lower ribs!.
Your body is changing!. It's temporary!.!.!. but i don't know for how long!. Growing bones and sexual maturity take time!. It is not the same for each person and unfortunately, it won't be finished over night!.
Make sure you get plenty of good, fresh food and water!. Get lots of sleep, and lots of exercise!. And - unfortunately - you will just have to wait it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
