Help woman with protruding spine who is bedridden and has to be sitting ip in bed for breathing issues to help not get ulcers on and near spine please?

Severe kyphosis: This usually develops gradually. The ensuing stoop creates pressure on the lungs from the pressure from the abdominal contents pushing up on diaphragm. This happens from osteoporosis (fractures), or genetically (scheuermann's disease). Either way, if the gibbus is ulcerating, you need help. See a spine surgeon capable in deformity. Go to www.Srs.Org, and find a doctor.
