What is scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a lateral curvature of the spine, which is most usually diagnosed in teenagers. A typical spine appears straight when viewed from behind. However, a child with scoliosis will have a S or C-shaped spine. The curve may occur on either the right or left side of the rotation. Alternately, it could happen in different places on both sides. Both the middle (thoracic) and lower (lumbar) spines may be impacted.
