What is this hump behind my neck and is liposuction a better solution to fix it? (Photo)

Ami Ritzie
I noticed I had a neck hump and its appearance started to bother me so I went to an orthopedic doctor who had me do an x-ray. The result was that I had lost the natural curvature of the cervical spine. I underwent 8 sessions with a chiropractor, 4 sessions with a physiotherapist, and 2 sessions with a personal trainer in the last six months but the hump hasn’t gone away. I also work out at the gym four days a week and watch my posture constantly. Is liposuction a better solution to fix it?
