fundamentals of scoliosis diagnosis & treatment

Scoliosis is a common spinal condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It involves an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine, which can lead to postural changes, discomfort, and potential health complications. In observance of Scoliosis Awareness Month, we have provided a comprehensive overview of scoliosis, covering its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options.

What Are Some Causes Of Curvature Of The Spine?

When you look at a normal, healthy spine from the side it should show vertebrae stacked with the discs with gentle curving. If you are looking straight at it from a back view it should be nice and straight from the neck all the way down the back.
