Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

The chest of baby may sometimes be bulged. The treating physician who has clinically evaluated the child and also gone through the X ray has not found any abnormality. There appears to be no cause for concern.
Rest be assured there will be no future problem.

In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Wishing you happy and healthy life

Take Care
