The Skeletal system
The human body is a complex machine made up of several independent systems that work day and night for our survival, just like the skeletal system. The skeletal system has many different parts that work like the skull. There are a lot of diseases you can get, like Kyphosis also known as hunchback. Luckily there are surgeries and treatments to take care of Kyphosis. The skeletal system is made up 206 parts and each part has a unique function. The skeletal system has many parts. One important part is the skull. Your skull protects the most vital organ which is your brain. Your ribs are like your skull because they protect your lugs and heart. Your pelvis protects your kidneys and part of your digestive system. We are very lucky to have those bones, because us humans have a lot of injuries. Unfortunately people can be born with diseases or disfunctions in the bones like Kyphosis. Kyphosis is also known as hunchback. It is a forward bending of the spine. Kyphosis is caused by any condition that deforms the bones part of the spine so that the patient is bent forward. Kyphosis, along with many other conditions affects the spine. Kyphosis treatments aren’t always necessary. But sometimes the patient gets a pinched nerve and has to have surgery. The most common way to get rid of Kyphosis is spinal fusion. Normally the patient has no pain because it is just a curve in the spine. Unlike Spina Bifida Kyphosis is easily treated. I learned that the human body is more than just skin and bone. Inside those bones it is alive and moving, Kyphosis is more than a disease it’s a disfunction. The cures for Kyphosis are reasonable and helpful not just something that covers it up. The human body along with the skeletal system is very interesting and I would like to learn more about them.
