Kyphosis is when the upper back curves forward too much, so you look hunched over. It can come from bad posture, weak bones, or other problems and can make it hard to stand up straight or even breathe easily.
Symptoms may vary depending on the location and severity of the condition:
Reduced chest expansion.
Compensatory neck pain from looking up.
Muscle tiredness and aching in the upper back.
Visible hump or forward head posture.
