Spinal cause: It is the one that produces kyphosis in adults because it is caused by a vertebral fracture due to osteoporosis.

¿What is kyphosis caused by?

Kyphosis is one that has exaggerated forward curvature of the upper back. This usually notices the weakness of the bones of the spine, which causes them to fracture and compromise.

In most cases, kyphosis stops progressing when the teen stops growing.

Translation:

La cifosis es aquella que tiene curvatura exagerada hacia adelante de la parte superior de la espalda. Esta suele darse a la debilidad de los huesos de la columna vertebral, que hace que se fracturen y compriman.

En la mayoría de los casos, la cifosis deja de avanzar cuando el adolescente deja de crecer.
