Question: How do you treat the condition Kyphosis when a person has reached skeletal maturity!?
Kyphosis is a curvature of the spine and it is usually known as hunchback or roundback!. It is usually seen in adolecents!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I don't have much experience in kyphosis!. My area is scoliosis (which is related), though!. If I can take an educated guess, exercise to keep your core muscles strong and reduce your pain is the first option!. This is followed by pain management, and if your curve is bad enough, surgery!. As an adult, bracing is probably not effective because you're done growing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
