Anterior lower chest area

Introduction

The chest area (lower anterior) is a small area of ​​skin located between the collarbones and costal arches. This area performs a number of important functions and is connected to various organs, so it needs special attention to its hygiene and health. In this article we will look at the anatomy and function of the anterior inferior chest area, and also focus on some of the problems associated with this area of ​​the body.

Anatomy

The anterior lower region of the chest is located above the abdomen and is covered with a layer of subcutaneous fatty tissue. It consists of superficial and deep fascia, between which there is connective tissue. Subcutaneous fat plays an important role in thermal insulation and support of the chest organs. There are a number of structures in the anterior lower chest area that can affect its function:

- Skin: the skin of the anterior lower surface of the chest can be divided into two layers - the hyperemic layer (dermis) and the dermatome. The hyperemic layer covers the upper layers of the dermis. It contains blood vessels, nerve endings and sweat glands. Desemma also includes hair, mammary glands and endocrine glands. - Sweat glands: located along the border of the epidermis and dermis and are involved in thermoregulation of the body and maintaining normal moisture levels in the skin. - Mammary glands: located in women's front and lower breasts and used to produce milk during breastfeeding. They consist of three main components - glandular tissue, milk ducts and connective tissue.
