What happened to the bone behind the cervical vertebrae in children?

Most of the symptoms in children are normal. The human cervical spine consists of seven vertebrae arranged from top to bottom. The cervical vertebrae are oval shaped cylinders with an arch attached to the back of the vertebrae, which is like a bow and arrow set horizontally at the back of the vertebrae. At the end of the arch, a prominent bony structure called the spinous process is formed, which makes the cervical vertebrae and other vertebrae visible under the skin of the back of the body, forming a tightly connected bony protrusion that can be localized by touching the vertebrae. The spinous processes of the last cervical vertebrae, the seventh cervical vertebrae, are the longest among the cervical vertebrae. In some cases, the spinous processes of the first thoracic vertebrae are even longer than those of the seventh cervical vertebrae, and when viewed from the back, they appear to be protruding from the back of the child’s neck.
