Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a health condition associated with low back pain, low back, folds or irregularity in the lumbar region. This causes the folds or irregularities in the waist area to deteriorate the natural shape of the body. Scoliosis usually creates a height difference or an oblique appearance in the lumbar region. Types of scoliosis can generally be classified according to the direction of the folds and irregularities in the lumbar region. There are four types of scoliosis: congenital, idiopathic, neuromuscular, and degenerative scoliosis.

In the article, information about what scoliosis is and what types it may occur will be given under the following headings:

What is Scoliosis and How Does It Occur?

Scoliosis occurs due to an abnormality in the lumbar region. This abnormality is characterized by folds and irregularities in the lumbar region. Factors that contribute to the formation of scoliosis include congenital abnormalities, neural development disorders, bone loss and muscle weakness. The most important factor determining the course and treatment of scoliosis is the type of scoliosis. Types of scoliosis include:

Congenital Scoliosis

It is a congenital health condition and occurs due to an abnormality in the lumbar region during the development of the baby in the womb.

Idiopathic Scoliosis

 Idiopathic scoliosis is the condition known as the cause of a person's lower back pain. This condition can occur due to a congenital abnormality of the spinal column or an accidental injury. This condition can make it difficult for some people to walk and move properly.

Neuromuscular Scoliosis

Neuromuscular scoliosis occurs because people's lower back bones do not grow properly. It is usually caused by neural developmental disorders such as neural tube defects and spinal cord damage.

Degenerative Scoliosis

It occurs due to an abnormality in the lumbar region and usually occurs with old age. This type of scoliosis occurs due to factors such as bone loss and muscle weakness in the lumbar region.

How is scoliosis diagnosed?

The diagnosis of scoliosis is made by a physical examination that shows the folds and irregularities in the lumbar region. Your doctor can diagnose scoliosis by examining the folds and irregularities in the lumbar region. In addition, your doctor can evaluate the extent and course of scoliosis using X-ray, MRI and other imaging methods. It is important to use these imaging methods to diagnose scoliosis, as with these methods your doctor can have more detailed information about the type of scoliosis you have and its treatment.

What is Scoliosis Treatment?

Scoliosis treatment involves using various methods to ensure that people's backbones grow properly, to stop the progression of the disease, and to reduce back pain. These methods include physical therapy, exercise, and pain medication. Scoliosis treatment may vary according to the course of the disease, and in some cases, surgical intervention may be required. In general, the following methods can be counted among the methods of scoliosis treatment:

Pain Relievers

Pain relievers are used to reduce back pain caused by scoliosis. These drugs prevent the occurrence of pain by blocking the pain signals in the body, thus reducing low back pain. The use of pain relievers in the treatment of scoliosis is done as the doctor deems appropriate, and the dosage and duration of use of these drugs are determined by the doctor.

Exercises

Regular exercises can slow the course of scoliosis and reduce folds and irregularities in the lumbar region. Scoliosis exercises include:

• Straight standing exercises: These exercises strengthen the muscles in the lumbar region and help reduce folds and irregularities in the lumbar region.
• Pilates: Pilates makes the muscles in the waist area flexible and strong and helps to reduce the folds and irregularities in the waist area.
• Yoga: Yoga makes the muscles in the lumbar region flexible and strong and helps to reduce folds and irregularities in the lumbar region.

Corset

A corset can be used to stop the course of scoliosis and to reduce folds and irregularities in the lumbar region. The corset is a device that applies power to the waist area and helps to straighten the folds in the waist area.

Surgical

If the scoliosis has reached a serious level and other treatment methods have been inadequate, surgery may be necessary. Surgery helps smooth out folds and irregularities in the lumbar region. However, surgery is a serious procedure and often carries serious risks, so you should talk to your doctor to determine the best treatment option.
