Thoracic Disc Herniation

Along with growing age, our body can go through wear and tear that occur in the disc. This may lead to the soft spongy tissue in the center of the disc squeezing, i.e., herniate on the side of the disc. Thoracic disc herniation may also occur due to a type of injury such as a sudden and forceful twist of the mid-back during an accident or a fall, or Scheuermann’s disease – a disease of the thoracic spine.

Thoracic Kyphosis

The term kyphosis refers to a clinical condition where excess curvature is formed, i.e., greater than 50 degrees, which causes a stooped forward posture. So basically, thoracic kyphosis is caused when there is a forward curvature in the upper back.

Thoracic Osteomyelitis

Vertebral osteomyelitis is a type of bone infection caused by bacteria. It is most commonly found in the vertebrae of the spine, but it can spread into the epidural and intervertebral disc spaces as well. Osteomyelitis can affect any part of the spinal column, including the cervical (neck), thoracic (middle back), lumbar (low back), and sacral regions (sacrum). Depending on the severity of the damage to the spine, pain may spread to other parts of the body.

Thoracic Compression Fracture

Vertebral compression fractures, also known as VCFs, occur when the bony block or vertebral body in the spine breaks down, causing severe pain, deformity, and height loss. These fractures are more prevalent in the thoracic spine, the middle section of the spine, particularly the lower part.
