Ok I'm gunna go out and ask..

Here's the thing..

It's a bit odd but here..

when i stand my backbone (middle of my back :)) sticks out a alittle bit, alot sticks out of the back of my neck a bit.. reminds me of some kinda dinosuar or some shit..

anyways, my mom has wanred me about this and tells me to stand tall, but i know that doesnt cut much.. can anyone suggest anything..

i have seen a couple of kids at school have this as well..

my mom's theory is that i am always lookign down, as my head's postiion is always facing down a bit..


help?

You may have a form scoliosis, but from what I know about it, the spine usually will be deformed left to right, not front to back... but I don't really know much about it. I would see a doctor if I were you

Scoliosis is a curve from left-right/right-left.

Spondolysis would be a front-back curve IIRC.

Definately go to your family doc though.

Scoliosis is a curve away from the middle
Kyphosis is an exaggerated upper curve
Lordosis is an exaggerated lower curve

you can try for a postural exam too if its one of the above. Most of the time with these back problems, since everything is out of alignment, you might experience pain in your hips, knees, and/or ankles.
