Lordosis (also known as swayback) is when the lower back, above the buttocks, curves inward too much, causing the child's abdomen to protrude and buttocks to stick out. Kyphosis is when the upper spine curves too far outward, forming a hump on the upper back.
An increased front-to-back curve of the upper spine is called kyphosis. Kyphosis is an exaggerated, forward rounding of the back. It can occur at any age but is most common in older women. Age-related kyphosis is often due to weakness in the spinal bones that causes them to compress or crack.
Cervical lordosis is when your spine in the neck region doesn't curve as it normally should. This can mean: There's too much of a curve. The curve is running in the wrong direction, also called reverse cervical lordosis. The curve has moved to the right.
