I'm having trouble walking straight upright. I've dealt with this issue since I was a kid, and my walking posture is really off. My shoulders and back are always hunched forward when I walk. I'm looking for exercises that might help me improve my posture and walk straight. Any suggestions?

Your problem is termed as kyphosis... Kyphosis is an exaggerated, abnormal rounding or curving of the vertebrae that affects the posture.... Kyphosis can result from trauma, degenerative diseases, problems during fetal development, infections, endocrine diseases, birth defects, spinal tumors and other factors.. Depending on cause and severity of the kyphosis, there are many different treatment options. Postural kyphosis may be improved with an exercise and a physical therapy program that strengthens supporting muscles
