Kyphosis

Kyphosis is an abnormal, excessive forward curvature of the thoracic spine, resulting in a rounded upper back. Clinically, it can cause pain, impaired posture, and respiratory compromise if severe. It is commonly associated with osteoporosis-induced vertebral fractures, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and management to prevent progression and complications.
