A member asked:
The prominent bone in the back of my neck between my shoulder blades sticks out a lot farther than it does on other people i notice. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: Such prominence of a cervical vertebra can be normal especially if it protrudes in the midline. Some curvature of the spine may also contribute to the prominence. If you still have concerns, have your physician examine you for reassurance.
