Scoliosis

Tasha

Message 9 of 11 Previous Next



I am 51 this year and have had polio since I was four by the time I was 12 I had a 90 degree curve to my spine and now it is 113. I have been told by specialist there are three types of scoliosis the type that stops when you stop growing usually found in the teens, can be heritary. The kind that is excelled by a muscled or nerve disease like polio and gets bad quick like mine and the third was one that is excelled and heritary. If you have nothing else wrong and have a slight curve it's as simple as exercise and nutrition and posture can help but if it hasn't stop soon then other measures like spinal fusions, body casts can sometimes stop the progression. See a Dr in a major city that specializes in adult scoliosis and see what they think. I have had it all and more to end up with it keep going because of other problems. Keep the faith it's important take care Dee
