What are the Symptoms of Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine. It is actually natural and healthy for the spine to curve from front to back. This type of curve is only visible when viewed from the side. Kyphosis is a curve seen from the side in which the spine is bent forward. Once signs of scoliosis are detected, a proper diagnosis should be made by a doctor who specializes in condition. Physicians use medical and family history, physical exam, when checking a person for scoliosis. An x ray of the spine will confirm if a person has scoliosis.
