→information needed for what is anatomical and what is a pathological condition: Improved article today. |
Remove "Origin of term" section since I addressed this in the article. Remove "lactation" and "Ghetto Booty" sections since that was addressed long ago. Remove WikiProject Sexuality template since the sexual content is all in Lordosis behavior |

== What's lactation got to do with it? == |
|||
This sentence, from the end of the 2nd paragraph, doesn't make any sense to me: |
|||
''Those curvatures start to appear during the fetal period, but don't become evident until lactation.'' |
|||
The phrase "during the fetal period" presumably refers to the development of the fetus. However, lactation is the process by which a mother secretes milk to feed her young. I fail to see the connection. |
|||
Can someone clue me in? Thanks! ~ [[User:Mpwrmnt|Mpwrmnt]] 07:28, 15 March 2007 (UTC) |
|||
The article is correct, but lactation is completly wrong, suggesting the mother develops lordosis rather than the infant. According to Moore and Dalley: "They begin to develop in the foetal period but do not become obvious until infancy" |
|||
and |
|||
"The thoracic and sacral curvatures are concave anteriorly, whereas the cervical and lumbar curvatures are concave posteriorly." |
|||
The definition is certainly confusing though, needs clearing up.[[User:Swarvellous dude|Swarvellous dude]] 13:19, 20 May 2007 (UTC) |

The descriptions of lordosis and kyphosis were unclear and seemed to be the wrong way round. The Neck and Lumbar spine normally have a lordosis (Curve apex anteriorly) and the thoracic spine has a normal kyphosis (apex dorsally or posteriorly). The bit about the origin of the term is fascinating! --[[User:Mylesclough|Mylesclough]] 04:23, 8 October 2005 (UTC) |

23Nov2012 - it does not make any sense to have these as separate topics. Moreover, the current hyperlordosis entry is geared exclusively to dancers. It should be merged with the current lordosis entry. Technically, hyperlordosis is the correct term, but many use lordosis to refer to hyperlordosis. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/74.78.202.51|74.78.202.51]] ([[User talk:74.78.202.51|talk]]) 02:13, 24 November 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

== Ghetto Booty. == |
|||
I removed the statement that Lordosis is also known as Ghetto Booty. This was added because it is all over the news that ONE doctor told a patient that she had Ghetto Booty because the doctor did not think the patient would understand the diagnosis of Lordosis. In the linked article, another doctor said-It’s wrong in every aspect and it’s very demeaning, said Ragland about the diagnosis of ghetto booty given to her by Dr. Timothy Sweo. Another Doctor stated in the same article-Dr. Samueal Dagogo-Jack, who is also a professor at UT Health Sciences, said, I would not consider such diction as having any place in the clinical encounter. To me the linked article only proves that it should not be called Ghetto Booty,and is not known as such.--[[User:BeckiGreen|BeckiGreen]] ([[User talk:BeckiGreen|talk]]) 21:29, 15 July 2013 (UTC) |

Why are the paragraphs about hyperlordoses using 'Dancer' instead of 'Patient' or 'Individual' ? Seems like a literal copy from some book about sport-injuries. This is generally a confusing writing style, and possible copyright violation. Can somebody rework this. --[[Special:Contributions/79.225.125.105|79.225.125.105]] ([[User talk:79.225.125.105|talk]]) 13:58, 22 July 2016 (UTC) |

APT
APT or Anterior Pelvic tilt is one of the main causes of lordosis just so you know —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikistiki69 (talk • contribs) 08:43, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
lordosis in horses
A previous contributor stated that horses are prime examples of having spinal lordosis. This is quite incorrect - the shape of the horse's back reflects the shape of the dorsal spinous processes, not the line of the spine itself. MsCorrection (talk) 21:43, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
Can someone knowledgeable review this page, and whether it makes sense to be separate from Lordosis? Thanks. THF (talk) 17:51, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
23Nov2012 - it does not make any sense to have these as separate topics. Moreover, the current hyperlordosis entry is geared exclusively to dancers. It should be merged with the current lordosis entry. Technically, hyperlordosis is the correct term, but many use lordosis to refer to hyperlordosis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.78.202.51 (talk) 02:13, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

information needed for what is anatomical and what is a pathological condition
Terms needs to be clarified. Loss of lumbar lordosis is a term that needs to be added. --Abhijeet Safai (talk) 05:18, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

hyperlordosis is not the same as sway-back
A sway-back posture is characterised by the posterior displacement of the rib cage in comparison to the pelvis. It looks like the person has a hyperextension of the natural lordosis, however it is not necessarily the case. Most sway-back exhibit a posteriorly tilted pelvis and their lumbar is usually flat (too flexed) and not hyper lordotic (too extended). The point is, these are too different things. For references see "Muscles, testing and function, 4th edition, by Florence Peterson Kendall. ed. John Butler) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.50.243.52 (talk) 07:55, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
- OK; deleted sway-back in the list of synonyms. Klbrain (talk) 08:34, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
- Looking at this further, I've also removed the redirect from swayback and commenced a new page there discussing this condition. Klbrain (talk) 08:53, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
