What is posture deformities and their management?

Posture deformities refer to abnormal or misaligned positions of the body that can result from poor habits, muscular imbalances, or structural issues. Common types include scoliOSis, kyphosis, and lordosis, which can lead to discomfort, pain, and functional limitations. Management typically involves physical therapy to strengthen and stretch muscles, ergonomic adjustments in daily activities, and, in some cases, the use of braces or surgical interventions for severe cases. Early intervention and education on proper body mechanics are key to preventing progression and improving overall posture.
