Question

Arrange the following postural deformities in a sequential order from toe to head:
(A) Hump Back/Kyphosis
(B) Genu Varum
(C) Pes Planus
(D) Hollow Back
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• A. (D), (C), (B), (A)
• B. (A), (C), (D), (B)
• C. (C), (B), (D), (A)
• D. (B), (C), (D), (A)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To order postural deformities from toe to head, we must identify their anatomical locations:

• Pes Planus: Flat feet, affecting the foot arch, making it the lowest point.
• Genu Varum: Bow-leggedness, impacting the legs superior to the feet.
• Hollow Back (Lordosis): Excessive inward curvature of the spine in the lower back region.
• Hump Back/Kyphosis: Forward rounding of the upper back.

Arranged from lowest (toe) to highest (head), the sequence is:

(C) Pes Planus,
(B) Genu Varum,
(D) Hollow Back,
(A) Hump Back/Kyphosis

Therefore, the correct order is (C), (B), (D), (A).
