Scoliosis is a progressive spinal disorder characterized by an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine, often in an “S” or “C” shape. This condition can develop at any age but is most commonly diagnosed in children and adolescents during growth spurts. While some cases of scoliosis are mild and cause little discomfort, others can lead to back pain, postural imbalance, reduced lung capacity, and mobility issues if the curvature becomes severe. Scoliosis can be congenital, idiopathic, or neuromuscular in origin, with genetics, abnormal vertebral development, or underlying neurological conditions contributing to its onset. At Kasare Hospital, our team of orthopedic specialists provides comprehensive diagnostic evaluations and personalized treatment plans to effectively manage scoliosis and enhance spinal health.
The treatment for scoliosis depends on the degree of curvature, the patient’s age, symptoms, and progression risk. Mild cases (curves less than 20 degrees) are often monitored with regular check-ups and physiotherapy to maintain spinal strength and flexibility. For moderate cases (curves between 20-40 degrees), bracing may be recommended to prevent further curvature progression in growing children. In severe cases (curves exceeding 40-50 degrees), surgical intervention may be necessary to correct spinal deformity. Spinal fusion surgery and minimally invasive corrective procedures help realign the spine, stabilize the vertebrae, and prevent worsening of the condition. At Kasare Hospital, we utilize cutting-edge orthopedic techniques to ensure optimal spinal correction with minimal recovery time.
Successful scoliosis treatment extends beyond medical interventions to include rehabilitation, lifestyle modifications, and posture correction therapies. Physiotherapy, targeted exercises, and chiropractic care can help strengthen the core and back muscles, improving posture and spinal stability. Patients are encouraged to maintain an active lifestyle, practice good posture, and undergo regular medical evaluations to track spinal alignment. At Kasare Hospital, we emphasize a holistic approach to scoliosis care, ensuring patients receive expert guidance, personalized treatments, and long-term support for improved spinal health. If you or your child experience uneven shoulders, back pain, or visible spinal curvature, schedule a consultation with our specialists today to explore the best treatment options for a healthier, pain-free spine.
