Yes, an injury can lead to scoliosis, particularly if it affects the spine or surrounding muscles and ligaments. Traumatic injuries, such as fractures or severe muscle strains, can cause the spine to develop an abnormal curvature as the body compensates for pain or instability. Additionally, conditions like neuromuscular disorders resulting from injury can also contribute to the development of scoliosis. However, most cases of scoliosis are idiopathic, meaning the cause is unknown.
If the scoliosis is so severe that there is injury to the spinal cord, paralysis could result.
