Scoliosis treatment. How to treat scoliosis in children?

In the modern world, a disease such as scoliosis has become widespread. The medical definition of scoliosis is a disease of the musculoskeletal system, the distinctive feature of which is the curvature of the spine in the lateral plane,

with the vertebrae rotated around its axis, leading to dysfunction of the chest, functional changes in internal organs, as well as cosmetic defects. To put it a little more simply, scoliosis is a lateral curvature of the spine . The danger of this disease appears, first of all, during the process of intensive growth of the spine , between the ages of 4 and 15 years, that is, in childhood.

How does scoliosis occur in children? How to treat scoliosis? Before talking about the causes of its occurrence and treatment methods, it should be noted that scoliosis can be congenital and acquired. The basis of congenital scoliosis is the following types of spinal curvature : underdeveloped spine , deformation of wedge-shaped vertebrae, accessory vertebrae, etc. Acquired scoliosis in children is divided into: rheumatic, rachitic, paralytic, habitual. But this is only a basic list of the most common types of the disease.
Causes of scoliosis

Acquired scoliosis in most cases begins with a violation of the child’s posture - the intervertebral discs , experiencing different lateral pressure, gradually shift towards less resistance. The danger of scoliosis in children is that if no measures are taken, it will progress, which very often goes unnoticed, because the body tries to compensate for the curvature by shifting the intervertebral discs in the direction opposite to the original curvature. Here are several reasons that can lead to spinal curvature :
Underdevelopment of the ligamentous-muscular system, incorrect posture.
Physiological features of the human structure itself - flat feet, different leg lengths, squint, myopia, etc.
Professional characteristics - incorrect position at the workplace, habitual crooked posture.
Asymmetrical development of the muscular system as a result of unilateral paralysis or rheumatism.
Traumatic injuries, for example, a fracture in the spine.
Poor physical development as a result of poor nutrition.
Past diseases - rickets, tuberculosis, polio, radiculitis , etc.



Scoliosis is distinguished: according to the place of its formation - cervical, cervicothoracic, thoracolumbar, lumbar, lumbosacral and total; according to the shape of the curvature - C-shaped, S-shaped and Z-shaped.
