Can I fix my neck hump?
I seem to have a neck hump which is very bony instead of fat deposits. Can it be reversed if the bone itself has formed that way?

This usually is not bony. Its more of a postural issue. Get an xray done to see the bone and start neck exercises. Follow good neck postures etc to rectify this. Thanks
