What does right convexity thoracolumbar scoliosis mean and what are some of the systoms?
Scoliosis is termed as the lateral curvature of your spine. It can either be structural or non structural. Structural is when your spine side bends and also has a rotational component. Non- Structural is when your spine just has a side bend component and it can be removed with change in position/posture. Symptoms Might include: Difficulty bending and reaching on the side of scoliosis, Shortened muscles on the concavity side if scoliosis is longstanding, severe conditions might reduce the capacity of your lungs, Walking in a correct and natural manner might be difficult, an evident curve might be seen. Depending upon the curve, scoliosis is named. If your spine curve has convexity towards the right, it will be right scoliosis and a spine with convex left side is a left scoliosis. While screening for scoliosis, you will have to have a keen observation. Observe a person from the back rather than from the front. Things to observe will be: 1. Raised shoulder on the side of scoliosis 2. Raised iliac crest (top crest of your hip bone) on the side of scoliosis. 3. Look as if the person is bending to the opposite side. You might want to perform an Alan's Forward bend test Here, ask the person to touch the toes with bending the back and keeping the knees straight. If there is a hump on the back raised one particular side then we can say that its a structural scoliosis. Based on a test called Cobb's Angle test, your orthopedic doctor will determine the amount of problem you have. Based on Cobb's Angle results treatment can be done by a. Physical Therapy b. Orthosis c. Surgery If treated and cared early, scoliosis can be reversed very easily and can facilitate a better lifestyle.
