Hi,
Showing loss of curvature and straightening of spine in elderly might be due to degenerative and osteo-artheritis in spines.
But as you are young this might be due to faulty posture of sitting.
This can be due to long time sitting in front of computer or table work.
Correct your posture.
Sit straight and avoid bending from back while doing work.
Go for back extension exercises daily.
Ok and take care.
