Scoliosis

The specialists at The Centers for Advanced Orthopaedics provide surgical and nonsurgical treatment for scoliosis, an abnormal curvature of the spine.

About Scoliosis: Treatment and Conditions 

Even if you are not a candidate for scoliosis surgery, it is important to have scoliosis monitored for timely interventions. Our team of orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine specialists, and PM&R (physical medicine and rehabilitation) doctors work together to achieve optimal results for every patient.

Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine. A healthy spine has natural front-to-back curves. Scoliosis is a condition that describes side-to-side curvatures of the spine that often also involves rotational deformities. Some people are born with scoliosis, or it may result from neuromuscular conditions, osteoporosis, or for unknown reasons (idiopathic scoliosis).

Scoliosis is a progressive condition that can become worse over time. Untreated severe curvatures can cause medical complications. Scoliosis may be monitored or treated with back bracing or spine surgery.

Scoliosis Symptoms

  • Spine curvature to one side
  • One shoulder or one hip that appears higher than the other
  • The body may lean to one side
  • Protruding shoulder blades
  • Back pain and fatigue
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Pressure on the spinal cord or nerves
  • Arthritis in the spine with aging
