Can Scoliosis Happen Suddenly?

They often think that the condition developed suddenly. The rate of progression in scoliosis is truly unknown. Many factors can play a role in how fast or slow it progresses. One of the largest associated factors with progression is growth during puberty. This growth is rapid, cyclic, and unpredictable. During this stage, scoliosis can progress very quickly, sometimes 5 to 10 degrees a month, when it's left untreated. Another important progression factor is spinal degeneration. This condition can lead to scoliosis progression. This progression is slow at first, causing a small curve to develop. If left untreated, this small curve will further degenerate the spine and produce all the negative associations of scoliosis. The traditional treatment approach to scoliosis fails at addressing scoliosis as soon as it develops. In mild scoliosis cases, the only recommendation is to watch and wait. Traditional doctors recommend a Boston brace once curves are considered moderate and the patient is at risk of growth due to puberty. These braces are a squeezing style brace designed to slow down scoliosis progression. Once the condition reaches severe levels, traditional doctors recommend surgery. At Scoliosis Reduction Center, we treat scoliosis using the conservative treatment approach. This approach emphasizes the importance of treating a curve while it is still small. In adult cases, treatment must begin right away. If there is a family history of scoliosis in adolescent patients, we must address the curve right away. Otherwise, there is an opportunity to "watch and wait" if the curve is below 15 degrees. Some of the tools used in the conservative method are scoliosis-specific chiropractic care and scoliosis-specific exercises. The latter are personalized to each patient, considering curve type, age, and physical abilities. Another tool is scoliosis-specific therapy to help increase flexibility. The goal behind these tools is to reduce the curve size and improve mobility. Some scoliosis cases may require bracing. In the conservative method, the braces are designed to correct the curve work in conjunction with the tools mentioned above. To know if scoliosis is getting worse, a specialist must do an X-Ray. Checking in on scoliosis progression is of utmost importance. Some patients may also start experiencing pain; this is another indicator that the condition has worsened. As soon as scoliosis is diagnosed, be proactive and work to reduce it as quickly as possible.

The rate of progression is an unknown factor in a scoliosis case. Growth that occurs at the onset of puberty can cause a curve to progress rapidly. Degenerative scoliosis is another classification where there can be a rapid progression. In other cases, the progression can happen very slowly, but it can continue to increase and cause concern.
