Understanding Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common spinal deformity that typically develops during the growth spurt just before puberty. It is characterized by an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine, causing it to resemble an "S" or "C" shape. This condition predominantly affects young individuals aged 10 to 18 and is more common in girls than boys.

If left untreated, scoliosis can lead to physical discomfort, significant spinal deformity, and potential health issues in the long term. Early detection and intervention are crucial in managing the condition effectively.
