Scoliosis By: Madelyn Cooley

What is Scoliosis? Scoliosis is the abnormal lateral curvature of the spine.

I have scoliosis myself and it can be very painful most of the time I have scoliosis myself and it can be very painful most of the time. My back hurts most of the time and it usually won’t stop hurting until I lay down. Some people have it a lot worse than others. The higher degree of a curve that the spine has, usually the more pain the person is going to have.

Cause & Treatment The real cause for scoliosis is unknown, but it is hereditary. The severity of some will not pass down through a family though. The treatments for scoliosis are surgery and wearing a back brace. The treatment depends on how severe the curvature of the spine is.
