Are you or someone you care about dealing with the challenges of scoliosis? It’s not just a physical condition but can affect your overall well-being. Understanding scoliosis and exploring effective treatments like Ayurveda can make a significant difference in your journey toward recovery and wellness.

What Is Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a spinal condition where your spine curves sideways, forming an “s” or “c” shape. This curvature can vary in severity and may cause discomfort or difficulty in your daily activities. Doctors are still figuring out exactly why some people get scoliosis, but it can come from things you are born with (like certain disabilities), problems with your muscles or nerves (like cerebral palsy), or even how your body grows as a teenager.

Signs & Symptoms Of Scoliosis

Uneven shoulders: One shoulder might look higher than the other, or one shoulder blade sticks out more.

Uneven waistline: Your hips may appear uneven, with one side higher than the other.

Visible spinal curve: When you bend forward, your back may show an “S” or “c” shape instead of being straight.

Back pain: You might feel pain in your back, especially as the curve gets worse.

Fatigue: Your muscles can get tired easily, especially after sitting or standing for a while.

Limited Mobility: Severe cases can make it hard to move your back comfortably or do everyday activities.

Types Of Scoliosis

Idiopathic scoliosis: This is when doctors don’t know why it happens. It often starts during growth spurts in adolescence. It can start in your teens and can get worse as you grow.

Congenital scoliosis: Happens when the spine doesn’t form correctly before birth

Neuromuscular Scoliosis: Linked to conditions like cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy that affect muscles or nerves.

Degenerative Scoliosis: Occurs when the spine’s discs and joints wear down with age, causing it to curve.

Traumatic Scoliosis: Can develop after injuries or surgeries that affect the spine’s shape.

Complications Of Scoliosis

If you don’t get treatment for scoliosis, it can lead to more problems like really bad pain in your back, having a hard time breathing because your lungs can’t work as they should, or feeling upset about how your body looks and moves.
