Strange rounding in the upper back
I have a slight (?) rounding in my upper back, just behind my traps. I'm not sure if it has something to do with my spine, or if it is fat. I've had it as far back as I can remember. What kind of doctor should I go to to find out what exactly is going on, and if it is unhealthy/dangerous?
