Either Scoliosis or Kyphosis. Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine, primarily in the thoracic region. Kyphosis is the forward bending of the thoracic region, the "round back" deformity.
Well, scoliosis is a curvature of the spine. The cervicothoracic part deals with the location of the curve. The cervical region is the neck, and the thoracic is the upper back. So the cervicothoracic scoliosis would be a curvature of the spine in the neck/upper back

Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine. It can occur at any level of the spine, including the cervical (neck), thoracic (upper back), and lumbar (lower back) regions. The most common location for scoliosis is the thoracic spine, which is the upper and middle part of the back.
Scoliosis occurs mainly in the thoracic and thoraco-lumbar regions. Scoliosis also effects the muscular-skeletal body system.

Mild S-shaped thoracic scoliosis at the T4-T5 level refers to a slight lateral curvature of the spine in the thoracic region, specifically between the fourth and fifth thoracic vertebrae. The "S-shaped" description indicates that the curvature has two bends, creating an "S" appearance when viewed from the back. While classified as mild, scoliosis can still affect posture and may require monitoring or treatment, depending on symptoms and progression. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider are advisable to assess any changes over time.
