Defects relating to Posture 2012
If the school going children are examined in relation to body postures, at least fifty percent of
them will be found adopting faulty posture in one way or other. These defects are of the
following:

Spinal Curvature: This defect is generally found in a large number of children. Excessive strain
during childhood on the vertebral column makes it curve and the following defects arise”

        Appearances of Kyposis
        Lordosis
        Scoliosis

The following deformities appear in the Kyposis:

   1.   Bending of head and body in forward direction
   2.   Round Back
   3.   Flat Chest
   4.   Round Shoulders
   5.   Round hollow back
   6.   Bulging out of the belly

The above mentioned defects are caused by nonnutritive and unbalanced diet, lack of fresh air
and inadequate physical exercises. Besides faulty desk sitting posture, myopia, excessive strain
on shoulders and rickets also deform the waist region. The teacher in order to remove these
defects should impress upon the students the importance of adopting correct postures while
standing, reading and writing .Boys with deformities should be advised to take proper physical
exercises in order to remove their defects.

Lordosis

The defect causes the back to bend in either direction. Curvature also appears in the waist region.
The shoulder bones in the back also seem to be bending towards the sides. Hips also bulge out.
In this state of body, occasionally the child experiences pain in the back and walks like a lame
person.

For removing this defect, the child should be made to stand in the correct posture. Special
physical exercises, too, cure this defect. In sever complication cases, proper treatment should be
undertaken on the expert advice of a doctor.

Flat Foot

This defect is found in the early years in weal children. This is caused by over work and by
putting on heavy shoes. This weakens the body bonds which keep, the foot muscles and foot
bridge in order. Consequently, the foot becomes flat. Continuously standing or walking also tries

out the muscles as the results of which these muscles find themselves unable to function properly
and the foot turns flat.

The foot should be rested as soon as symptoms of this defect appear. They should be saved from
fatigue. This defect is also overcome by walking on toes. It is also useful to apply pressure on the
edges of sole while walking.

                                         Summary
Correct body posture represents a healthy and strong body. Faulty postures on the on the other
hand, mean a week and sick body. There are two causes of faulty postures:

       Relating to home
       Relating to school

Many deformities in the body appear due to faulty postures adopted while standing, sitting,
reading or writing e.g. spinal curvature, flat foot etc.

The students while reading a book should sit in an upright position and keep the book at a
distance of at least twelve inches from the eye. An angle of 45 degree should be formed while
reading a book in hand.

Special attention should be paid on the manner of holding the paper position, the hand writing
and the way of writing.

The head, shoulders and the hips should form a straight line while sitting.Veretbral column
should also be straight.

The body weight should fall equally on both the legs while standing for a short time, but for a
longer duration, the body weight should fall alternately on legs,i.e. ,one leg should remain
stretched forward.
