Scoliosis is defined as a medical term in which one’s spine is curved from side to side. As a result, the spine of that individual may look like a “C” or an “S,” rather than an I or a lower case “L.” There are various treatment options available, such as observation and physical therapy. Spinal surgery is also a treatment option, as it is to potentially help in straightening out the spine.*

Of the general population, scoliosis affects everyone, ranging from children to middle aged adults. There is even a chance that scoliosis runs through an entire family. Individuals who have a family history of scoliosis are very prone to developing this diagnosis. Several other causes may include cerebral palsy, spina bifida, spinal muscular atrophy, and tumors.*
There are several factors that may contribute to scoliosis, which may include*:

Treatment for scoliosis is usually dependent on the severity of your condition. Often, no treatment is necessary, but in other situations, a brace or surgery will be recommended.*
Having an X-ray can confirm the diagnosis of scoliosis and also reveal the severity of your spinal curvature. You may require additional imaging tests like an MRI if your doctor suspects that an underlying condition (such as a tumor) is the cause of your scoliosis.*
There are three primary options for treating those diagnosed with scoliosis. These can include:*
