Understanding Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a condition where the spine develops an abnormal sideways curve. While a healthy spine appears straight when viewed from behind, scoliosis causes a visible curve, often resembling an “S” or “C” shape. This curvature can develop at any age but is most commonly noticed during the rapid growth phase of adolescence.

Early Detection and Intervention

One of the keys to managing scoliosis effectively is early detection. The condition often begins subtly, with a slight bend in the spine that may progress over time. Medical professionals typically diagnose scoliosis when the spinal curve measures more than 10 degrees to the right or left.

By identifying and addressing scoliosis early, we can often prevent more severe curvatures and the potential complications that come with them. That’s why we encourage parents and individuals to be aware of the signs and seek professional evaluation if there are any concerns.
