Kyphosis Physiological

Kyphosis (from the Greek kyphós - bent, curved) is a type of curvature of the spine in the sagittal plane with a convexity backward, occurs when the muscles and ligaments of the back constantly contract, putting pressure on the vertebrae. A bulge of this kind does not arise due to any disease of the musculoskeletal system, but simply from constant pressure on the spine. That is why the deviation relative to the vertical axis will not be more than 40 degrees. In this case, the spine is more stable and flexible and therefore can more correctly regulate the position of the body, which makes it healthy. This position of the spine is also known as physiological
