There are three types of spinal deformities:
Kyphosis: Kyphosis implies an increase or exaggeration of a backward or posterior curve or a decrease or reversal ofa forward curve. It is also called round upperback. Depression of chest is common in kyphosis.
Lordosis: Lordosis is the inward curvature of spine. In fact, it is an increased forward curve in the lumber region. It creates problem in standing and walking. The body seems to be stiff. Lordosis can be corrected in the early stage.
Scoliosis: Postural adaptation of the spine in lateral direction is called scoliosis. In fact, these are sideways curves and may be called scoliotic curves. Indeed these curves are identified as either convexity right or right convexity. A simple or single curve to the left or convexity Ieft is commonly called a 'C' curve. Scoliotic curves may be found in 'S' shape.
