What is Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a condition where your spine curves to the side. The curve may be 'C' or 'S' shaped, and it can lead to a variety of different symptoms, including back pain, reduced mobility, and - in severe cases - restricted breathing. • Scoliosis affects roughly 3% of the population, which means that there are millions of people living with this condition worldwide. However, no two cases of scoliosis are exactly alike - the size and shape of the curvature can vary massively from one person to the next, as can the rate of progression and the severity of the patient's symptoms. • All of this must be taken into consideration when determining how to treat scoliosis. Spinal fusion surgery (an operation that involves anchoring a series of rods to the spine) can be the only viable treatment for especially severe spinal curves, but observation, bracing and physical therapy can be effective in other cases. • In approximately 8 out of 10 cases, scoliosis is 'idiopathic' (which means that there is no clear underlying cause). Idiopathic scoliosis normally develops between the ages of 10-15, often coinciding quite closely with the onset of puberty. More rarely, scoliosis can be found in young children - this is known as juvenile idiopathic scoliosis. Scoliosis may also be caused by an underlying condition such as osteoporosis, Marfan syndrome or syringomyelia. • This video is provided by the Scoliosis SOS Clinic in London, UK.
