Introduction
What calcium supplements can patients with pigeon chest take? Patients with pigeon chest may take organic calcium supplements, which are less likely than inorganic calcium supplements to cause urinary tract stones. Organic calcium supplements are suitable for a broad population—including children, adolescents, and the elderly—due to their high bioavailability, minimal side effects, proven efficacy, and cost-effectiveness; thus, they are appropriate for managing pigeon chest. Additionally, enhanced nutrition and regular physical exercise are recommended.
