Hunchback in general happens in the dorsal back the area which is down the neck and lower back. It can be corrected by maintaing good posture, you can stand against the wall and you can do bending and shoulder exercises which will help you to reduce the hunch back and you can walk with one book which is kept on the head and you can walk slowly in such a way the book doesn't fall down which will definitely help you to reduce the hunch back. If it is too much then you have to wear a brace which will help you to reduce the deformity in the spine.
