Weird left rib

I have just noticed recently that my left rib seems to have a extra peice. It sticks out when i stand up and when i lay down. Its on the right corner (my perspective) of my rib. It is pretty obvious and it sticks out about a cm. Could this be an extra rib??? I dont really know much about that. Should i go see a doctor? It does kinda bother me as it sticks out a fair bit.

No i have not broken my rib to my knowledge although i did play football back in the day and i might have busted it then without knowing. What do you think?

Ohhhhhh...next form of human evolution.

Wouldnt hurt to get it checked out by a doctor. I would.

Actually my sister found out when she was about 31 after an Xray that she is missing a rib in his right side.

i have an extra bit on my collar bone- i thought it was a lump or something but its bone

Yes no question you should go and see a doctor. Maybe $50.00 to visit a doctor but the "peace of mind" is priceless.

Lol ill get a practially free vistit i got 80% coverage

I have scoliosis (curvature of the spine) and as a result, my left rib sticks out more to the side.

Yea i have heard of that. I still havent got to the doctor yet so i dont know really what I look like from behind .
