Why is it easier to perform a lumber puncture on an adult?
Doctors are trained to perform lumbar punctures on adult. Their lumbar spine, which is where the needle is inserted, is naturally in a different position due to the height of an adult. Since children are smaller, and have a shorter spine, their lumbar spine is in a different position. It's not that much more difficult to do it on a child, the doctor just has to break from his natural thought process and locate the lumbar spine in a different position.
Is the cervical spine inferior to the lumbar spine?
No.The cervical spine is in the neck and is above the lumbar spine, which is in the low back. Because we reference things from anatomical position, which is standing upright, and because the term "inferior" is used to denote things that are below, that statement would be incorrect. Therefore, we could correctly say the cervical spine is superior, or rostral, to the lumbar spine. We could also say that the lumbar spine is inferior, or caudal, to the cervical spine.
Will standing for a long time aggravates the disc which is already bulged or will lead to any other problem?

Why does the spine curve during pregnancy?
Your spine naturally has curves even before pregnancy. The spine consist of 4 specific curves: Cervical curve, Thoracic curve, Lumbar curve, and Pelvic Curve Curves in the spine provide support for the weight in the human body, and also make it easy to balance this weight.

What is the diet modification of a patient with herniated nucleus pulposus?
Diet modification would be essentially losing weight to take any undue stress off your lower spine. The excess weight, particularly around the midsection or abdomen places more stress on your lower spine. Especially around the L4/L5 area of the lumbar spine. If you were to lose this weight, it is thought that by reducing this load, there will be less weight bearing stress on this part of the spine.
