Back X-rays
Posted: 09-24-07 22:18pm

I've been having back pain and finally got a doctor to get me X-rays. Now I have to wait and find out what the Xrays mean. I was hoping that someone could. What does Loss of normal cervical lordosis mean, and what does Mild curvature of the mid thoracic spine mean?

Twinmia1,

Cervical Lordosis = lordosis refers to the curvature, cervical is (obviously) your neck, so it's a loss or straightening in the curve of your neck.

Mild Curvature of the Mid T-Spine = you are developing a curve where your spine should be straight or at least straighter.

By any chance do you work at a desk?
