Scoliosis is defined by an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine, posing unique challenges for diagnosis and treatment. The approach to management depends on several factors, including spinal maturity, the degree and location of the curvature, and the potential for progression. Treatment options can vary from observation and bracing to surgical intervention, based on individual circumstances.
Treatment Options
Observation: Regular monitoring of the condition, particularly in children whose spines are still developing.
Bracing: Recommended for children with moderate curves to help prevent further progression during their growth period.
Surgery: Considered for severe curves, especially when there is a risk of progression or notable spinal deformity.
