Q

Kyphosis

A

Excessive curving of the spine, producing a rounded or “humped” upper back, a type of spinal disorder often associated with scoliosis or lordosis; once popularly called humpback. In adults often related to osteoporosis (bone weakening from calcium loss), in children kyphosis more often results from injury, a tumor on the spine, or a genetic disorder, such as Hunter syndrome, or spina bifida.

Q

Lordosis (hyperlordosis):

A

Excessive curving of the lower spine, a type of spinal disorder often associated with scoliosis and/or kyphosis; sometimes popularly called swayback. In adults often related to osteoporosis (bone weakening from calcium loss), in children kyphosis more often results from injury, a tumor on the spine, or a genetic disorder, and can be exaggerated by poor posture.

Q

Scoliosis

A

Abnormal sideways curvature of the spine, in excessive cases becoming almost S-shaped, a type of spinal disorder commonly associated with lordosis and/or kyphosis. Most people have some amount of irregular curvature in the spine; perhaps one in ten has a curvature of at least 10 degrees. Curvature of 10-20 degrees is labeled mild, less than that, simply “postural variation.” Scoliosis often appears in childhood or adolescence, in infancy in more boys than girls, but by school age in both sexes.
