In conclusion, kyphosis is a condition
that affects the curvature of the spine,
causing the upper back to appear
rounded. Health professionals must be
knowledgeable about the causes,

symptoms, and treatment options
available for kyphosis to provide their
patients with effective care. Posture

analysis studies have shown that early
intervention and appropriate treatment
can prevent the progression of kyphosis
and improve the quality of life for those
affected by this condition.

Lordosis
Lordosis is a common postural

deviation that involves an exaggerated
inward curvature of the lumbar spine. It
is also referred to as swayback or
lumbar hyperlordosis. In most cases,

lordosis is not a serious medical
condition and can be corrected with
proper postural training and exercise.
However, in some cases, lordosis can

lead to chronic pain, muscle
imbalances, and other more serious
conditions.
