Hyperkyphosis Treatment in Midtown East, NY
Hyperkyphosis, also known as mid-back hunching, can negatively affect your nervous system and organs that it controls.
Ultimately, this can lead to restrictive pulmonary and cardiovascular disease, poor health and physical function, and even death, according to a study from the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society.
Generally speaking, people who suffer from mid-back hunching, have an increased mortality rate, the study said. That statistic remained the same for all ages and sexes.
