Scheuermann’s Disease (also known as juvenile kyphosis) is characterized by uneven growth in the vertebrae, causing them to form a wedge shape. Typical spines have natural curves of 20 to 40 degrees. People with steeper curves—from 40 to 45 degrees—are said to suffer from kyphosis. Scheuermann’s Disease takes kyphosis to the extreme: sufferers have spinal curvatures of up to 75 degrees.
