That is a condition known as kyphosis, or Scheuermann’s disease.  This condition occurs when the front of the upper spine does not grow as fast as the back of the spine, so that the vertebrae become wedge-shaped, with the narrow part of the wedge in front. The wedge-shape of the vertebrae creates an increase in the amount of normal kyphosis (front angulation of the thoracic spine). \n\nThe wedging of vertebrae in Scheuermann’s kyphosis is most common in the thoracic spine (upper back), with the apex of the curve typically between the T7 and T9 levels of the spine. Although less common, Scheuermann’s kyphosis may also occur in the junction between the thoracic and lumbar spine (thoracolumbar spine) or in the lumbar spine (lower back). \n\nThe cause of Scheuermann's disease is unknown, but is thought to be due to a growth abnormality of the vertebral body. The growth plate anteriorly (in the front) stops growing but the posterior part of the growth plate continues to grow. This is due to a condition known as osteochondrosis. \n\nScheuermann’s disease does not spread and is not really a “disease” but a condition that can arise during growth. It is more common in males and appears in adolescents usually towards the end of their growth spurt, but can occur in anyone.\n\nIf the roundback deformity is severe, patients are more likely to have discomfort or pain along with the deformity as they age. \n\nLearn more about it at the website below.   Good luck on your career as a holistic therapist.

There are chemicals in the air and its just how the light might have been bent. There are tons of different atmospheric problems that could have caused that.

There is, it is called Standarad Deviation, if you have a decent Scientific Calculator it shouyld show how to use it.

If there's no immediate obvious explanation (like you just bumped it) - get a medical evaluation.  This could be an early sign of something serious.

this is sometimes seen on cardiac echo, and has no significance...it can make a heart look enlarged when someone does a chest xray...but its not the heart that is enlarged...it just has more fat around it than usual

Hello,\n\n     I don't really understand your question. Of course, anomalies of jaw and teeth can happen, but answering why and what is more suitable for a textbook, not for yahoo! answers! Theses cases are common, can be extremely different, and be linked or not with other conditions. Teratology (the study of developmental anomalies) is a complex science!\n\nIf you have a more specific question, I might be able to help you.

Ellis-van Creveld syndrome: A type of short stature with striking shortening of the ends of the extremities (arms and legs), polydactyly (extra digits), fusion of bones in the wrist, dystrophy (abnormal growth) of the fingernails, change in the upper lip variously called 'partial hare-lip,' 'lip-tie,' etc., and cardiac (heart) malformations. The teeth may already be erupted at birth (natal teeth) and fall out prematurely. \n\nThe Ellis-van Creveld (EvC) syndrome was first described by Drs. Richard W. B. Ellis of Edinburgh and Simon van Creveld of Amsterdam. Each had a patient with this syndrome, as they had discovered when they met in the same train compartment on the way to a pediatrics conference in England in the late 1930s.

its a genetic problem

You are freaking me out! I didn't see that particular episode, but the show IS usually medically accurate, so I assume that this can really happen.\nHowever, it is probably extremely rare.

that's really rare but it has happened before.  It has to do with the chromosomes and how they are activated and crossed over and everything...it's complicated.

Sounds like an intussuception or a volvulus. Do a webMD search for more info. Doesn't have to be a family history. Just an unfortuante little girl.

It is an Autosomal Recessive Pattern, and yes it is genetic. To explain this pattern would be to lenghty here, so I would suggest that you go on-line and look up Progeria or Premature Aging. There is all kinds of information available about it.
