Scoliosis
Definition
Scoliosis is a disorder that causes an
abnormal curve of the spine, or backbone. There is a normal spinal curve when
looking from the side, but the spine should appear straight when looking from
the front.
Causes
- Functional: In this type of scoliosis, the
spine is normal, but an abnormal curve develops because of a problem
somewhere else in the body. This could be caused by one leg being shorter
than the other, carrying heavy loads that cause unequal weight-bearing, or
by muscle spasms in the back.
- Neuromuscular: In this type of scoliosis,
there is a problem when the bones of the spine are formed. Either the
bones of the spine fail to form completely or they fail to separate from
each other during fetal development.
- Degenerative: Unlike the other forms of
scoliosis that are found in children and teens, degenerative scoliosis occurs in older adults. It is
caused by changes in the spine due to arthritis known as spondylosis.
Symptoms
The most common symptom of
scoliosis is an abnormal curve of the spine.
