Abstract
The Purpose of the study was to do the comparative survey of selected postural deformities in school children of Majalgaon Tahasil. For this total N=300 students were selected with the
mean age of (16+/-1.23) year from different schools of Majalgaon Tahasil. Further, the selected subjects were divided into two intervention group n=150 boys and n=150 girls. The
selected postural deformities were upper limb .i.e. Kyphosis (KYH), lordosis (LDS), scoliosis (SLS) and lower limb i.e. knock knee (KNK), bow leg (BLG) and flat foot (FTF). Gird chart
technique, subjective observation and paper ink were used to assess the postural deformities. Percentage was applied as statistical tool for the study. The results of the study revealed that
percentage of boys suffering from selected postural deformities were (KYH=28.7%), (LDS=34.7%), (SLS=15.3%), (KNK=10%), (BLG=6.7%) and (FTF=4.7%). The results of the study revealed that percentage of girls suffering from selected postural deformities were (KYH=18%), (LDS=25.3%), (SLS=18%), (KNK=13.3%), (BLG=8.7%) and (FTF=16.7%).
Whereas, the percentage of total N=300 students suffering from postural deformities were
