A member asked:
My neck isn't the way it suppose to be because of me putting my head down. i think its loosing its curve is there a medical name for that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: the normal curve in your neck is called cervical lordosis. You could lose some of this curve with poor posture but can get it back with good posture and perhaps a physical therapy program or home exercises. Nice video on YouTube for these. Strand Chiropractic Centre. Basic Neck Exercise to Restore and Maintain the Natural Forward Curve. Hope this helps. Best of luck. Dr. R
