Types of Scoliosis
Scoliosis is classified based on its origin, age of onset, and curve pattern. The most common form is idiopathic scoliosis, usually diagnosed in adolescents with no known cause. Congenital scoliosis is present at birth due to abnormal spinal development in the womb. Neuromuscular scoliosis occurs as a secondary condition in individuals with muscular or neurological disorders such as cerebral palsy or spina bifida. Degenerative scoliosis develops in adults as a result of aging, disc degeneration, or spinal arthritis. Each type varies in progression and severity, making accurate diagnosis essential for determining the most effective, personalized treatment approach.

What Happens If Left Untreated?
When scoliosis is not addressed early, spinal curvature can worsen over time, especially during growth spurts or with age-related degeneration. As the curve progresses, it may lead to chronic back pain, stiffness, muscle fatigue, and reduced mobility. In severe cases, scoliosis can impair lung or heart function by compressing the chest cavity. Adults with untreated scoliosis often experience nerve compression symptoms, including tingling, numbness, or radiating leg pain. Long-term imbalance in posture can also lead to joint stress in the hips and knees. Early intervention helps slow or stop curve progression, prevent complications, and improve overall quality of life.
