Some authors have imputed the lateral or muscular curvature to an over-action of some of the muscles of one side; but the exact con- ti'ary — want of action — is invariably the fact. Some authors regard the muscular distortion as the predisposing cause of the bony distortion ; while others regard the disease of the bones and a relaxation of their ligaments as the producing cause of the muscular depressions. Nei- ther hypothesis is correct: for both affections, as already intimated, oomme" ;o pr...ogress, and terminate independently of each other: one being strictly organic, and primarily affecting the bones ; the other purely functional, and primarily seated in the muscles. Sometimes the miscuiTation is double, forming a sigm. Oid flexure ; and the contortion is said to be more frequently on the right side than on the left, prob- ably owing to the more fi-equent extension of the right hand, the body being thrown toward the left to preserve the central point of gravita- tion.
