Hyperlordosis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Hyperlordosis is an excessive accentuation of the spine's natural curve, usually in the lower back region, which causes the lower back to tilt more forward than normal.
What may be noticed: a posture with a more prominent abdomen and buttocks, discomfort or stiffness in the lower back, and, in some cases, associated muscle tension.
Possible causes: it is related to postural factors, muscle weakness or imbalance, being overweight, pregnancy, or problems with the spine itself.
Who evaluates it: the assessment of the spine may involve the neurosurgeon when involvement of the vertebral or nerve structures is suspected, in coordination with other professionals of the musculoskeletal system. If the curvature of your lower back causes persistent pain or limits your mobility, it is advisable to have a professional examine it and guide the most appropriate management for your case.
