Introduction to Upper Back

Your back muscles help control your posture, let you move, and help you breathe. They start at your neck, run down your spine, and end above your hips. Having occasional back pain or stiffness is normal, but visit a provider if you experience pain that lasts more than a week.

The ankle joint is as vital and versatile as the other structures in human anatomy. Delving into its anatomical complexities, physiological roles, and clinical ramifications is a journey that warrants in-depth exploration. Thoroughly scrutinizing the basic principles and latest developments and comprehending every aspect of this extraordinary joint's anatomy, biomechanics, and functionality enables healthcare providers to accurately evaluate patients and create customized treatment strategies aligned with their unique needs and objectives.

General Knowledge: Hump Back

Hyperkyphosis is a spinal deformity causing a forward-curved posture of the upper back (thoracic spine). Posture is the way you position your body. Posture changes throughout the day depending on what you are doing and how long you have been doing it. Sometimes, a person's posture can cause the upper back curvature to become excessive and stiff.


Assessment: Hump Back

Assessment of humpback (kyphosis) is essential for accurately diagnosing the condition, identifying its underlying causes, and formulating a targeted treatment plan. Kyphosis is characterized by an excessive outward curvature of the thoracic spine, which can be congenital, postural, or the result of degenerative diseases


Treatment & Management: Hump Back
