Thoracic Hyperkyphosis in Knoxville, TN

Overcome with Knoxville Chiropractic Solutions

Understanding Thoracic Hyperkyphosis

Thoracic hyperkyphosis is a condition characterized by an excessive outward curvature of the thoracic spine, leading to a pronounced rounding of the upper back. Often misconceived as merely a cosmetic issue, this spinal deformity can significantly impact your physical health and overall quality of life.

Symptoms and Health Implications

Those affected by thoracic hyperkyphosis may experience a range of symptoms, including:

• Persistent back and neck pain, contributing to discomfort and distress.
• Impaired posture, making it challenging to sit or stand straight.
• Compromised lung function and breathing difficulties due to the abnormal spine curvature.
• Increased susceptibility to spinal injuries, headaches, and muscle fatigue.
• Psychological impacts, including self-esteem issues and social discomfort.

Recognizing these symptoms is crucial for timely intervention, as untreated hyperkyphosis can lead to severe long-term health issues.
