Scoliosis Treatment in Oklahoma City
What is Scoliosis, and What Are the Most Common Symptoms?
Scoliosis can be defined as a lateral abnormal curvature of the spine, affecting more than 2% of the United States population.
Anyone can be diagnosed with scoliosis at any age; however, it's most commonly diagnosed in children between 10 to 15 years of age, with more than 100,000 children in the United States diagnosed each year.
While children and adolescents tend to be the focus, 30% of scoliosis is adult-onset. A staggering 90% of people will have scoliosis by 80 years old because of lack of treatment. No matter the age, understanding your scoliosis as soon as possible is the key to living a healthy life with scoliosis.
Some of the symptoms of scoliosis include:
• Uneven shoulders.
• Back and neck pain.
• Sleep disturbances.
• Disc herniation.
• Protruding ribs on one side of the body.
• Muscle straining.
• Stiffness
• Numbness
The Most Effective Scoliosis Treatment in Oklahoma City
If scoliosis is detected and treated early, in many cases, patients can avoid symptoms such as poor posture, shoulder humping, muscle weakness, and pain.
However, if left untreated, scoliosis can sometimes require surgery. In surgical cases, the bones of the spine are sometimes fused, and metal rods are inserted to try to straighten the spine.
If identified early enough, advanced chiropractic and bracing are effective treatments for halting the progression of scoliosis curves and reducing the need for surgery.
