What does “Hunchback” mean as a Medical Term? | Dr. Andrew Strauss

The medical term for "Hunchback" is "kyphosis." Using the term "Hunchback" can be considered derogatory, and professionals prefer the technical term. Kyphosis refers to the natural curve in the middle of the back. However, when this curve exceeds roughly 40 degrees, it is termed "hyperkyphosis." If it reaches a 70-degree curve, it becomes a candidate for surgery. Effective treatments for kyphosis include exercises and a specialized kyphosis brace, which can typically reduce the curvature by 20-30%, even in adults.
