Introducing yet another reason parents will yell at their teens to put down their phones: text neck. An Australian chiropractor has released x-rays that show curved spines and “developing hunchbacks” as a result of smartphone over-use. The doctor reports that he has seen an “alarming increase” of these text neck cases, and about 50% with the condition are teens. (Which means that you too can get text neck. Beware.) (IBT)
