Scolisis - Signs, Causes and Treatment of SCOLIOSIS
The human body is essentially supported by a row of spinal structures that act as a weight buffer. The normal human spine will look straight when viewed from behind. However, there are also conditions where the spine appears to bend or curve slightly to the left or right of the body such as the S curve known in medical terms as Scoliosis.
Scoliosis is not a disease but a medical condition in which the spine bends to the left or to the right and can even rotate on its vertical axis. Usually more cases of Scliosis are found in female adolescents than male adolescents at the age of 10 years to 15 years.
Severity of scoliosis, divided into 3 spinal conditions according to the angle of curvature of the spine (Cobb angle):
mild scoliosis: below 20 degrees according to Cobb,
moderate scoliosis: 20 to 50 degrees according to Cobb,
severe scoliosis: more than 50 degrees according to Cobb.
