What does it mean when you have levoconvex curvature of the thoracic and lumbar spine with multilevel degenerative disc disease and 19 degree curvature?
Levoconvex curvature of the thoracic and lumbar spine indicates a curvature that bends to the left side, which can be associated with conditions such as scoliosis. Multilevel degenerative disc disease refers to the deterioration of multiple intervertebral discs, potentially causing pain, reduced mobility, and other symptoms. A 19-degree curvature suggests a moderate spinal deformity, which may require monitoring or treatment depending on its severity and the presence of symptoms. Overall, this combination indicates a need for medical evaluation to determine appropriate management options.
