What does it mean when the doctor says you have mild levoconvex lumbar scoliosis?
The Lumbar Curve effects the lower part of the spine and often curves to the left. This curve remains fairly flexible, but can stiffen with age and develop arthritis.A Lumbar curve does not often cause serious deformity.The Major Scoliosis Curve PatternsCurvature can take place anywhere along the length of the spinal column, however there are four most common patterns of curvature. To be able to use yoga effectively for your scoliosis, find out what pattern you have from an orthopedic surgeon or knowledgeable professional in this field. A. Right thoracic Scoliosis indicates that the major scoliosis is concentrated in the thoracic (mid-back) region and curves to the right. In the right thoracic scoliosis there may also be a counter curve to the left in the lumbar (lower back) region, but this is a less severe curve.B. Left lumbar Scoliosis indicates that the major curve is to the left and is concentrated in the lumbar region. There may be an opposite curve less extreme to the right in the thoracic region.C. Right thoraco-lumbar Scoliosis indicates that the major curve is to the right in the thoracic and lumbar region. This is commonly known as a "C" curve.D. Right thoracic-left lumbar Scoliosis The last type of curvature is the combined curve where the major curve is in the thoracic region with an equal counter curve to the left in the lumbar region. This is commonly known as an "S" curve.For unknown reasons, 90 percent of thoracic and double curves are right convexity (curve to the right); 80 percent of the thoraco-lumbar curves also are right convexity; and 70 percent of the lumbar curves are left convexity. There can also be triple curves with an additional lateral curve in the cervical or neck region. Also two or more lateral curves can be in the thoracic region of the back with a major lumbar curve. With a more severe scoliosis, seven times as many women as men have scoliosis.For a picture visit the Related Link.
