👉 Thoracostenosis is a medical condition characterized by the inability of the chest muscles to support the weight and pressure placed on them. This can cause pain, difficulty breathing, and other symptoms such as shortness of breath or a cough. It is often associated with lung diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and emphysema. In severe cases, thoracostenosis may require medical intervention to prevent further complications.
