Is Kyphosis Genetic?

Generally, kyphosis is not genetic, but it may be in some cases. This type of kyphosis can be corrected through efforts in later life. If your child is young and has developed a noticeable hunchback, it may be caused by rickets or calcium deficiency. It’s recommended to get plenty of sunlight and consume foods rich in calcium, such as dairy products. It’s advised to have a health check-up at a children’s hospital and never use corrective devices, as they can affect normal development. As parents, it’s important to guide your child to engage in more physical exercise.
