Grandmother back problem

2017-07-16 05:19:10
My grandmother walks with bent back, however when she stands straight she feels no pain. She says that when she tries to move with back straight she feels that she may fall down thats why she prefer to move with her back bent. In this case should we consult a physician doctor or ortho? Please suggest
