What does it mean to have minimal cervicothoracic scoliosis and loss of cervical lordosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Translation: The spine at the neck usually has a gentile curve forward then back creating a bow like appearance when seen from the side. Lack of cervical lordosis means it has lost this curve. Cervicothoracic is just a term locating what they see as a slight curve (side to side) in the upper back.
