What is Cervicalthorasis Scoliosis?
This is scoliosis in the cervical (neck area) and thoracic (upper back) regions of the spine.
Were is scoliosis located in the spine?
Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine. It can occur at any level of the spine, including the cervical (neck), thoracic (upper back), and lumbar (lower back) regions. The most common location for scoliosis is the thoracic spine, which is the upper and middle part of the back.
Can scoliosis affect the cervical spine?
Yes, scoliosis can affect the cervical spine, although it primarily involves the thoracic and lumbar regions. In cases of cervical scoliosis, the curvature can lead to neck pain, muscle tension, and potential neurological issues due to nerve compression. Additionally, it can influence overall posture and spinal alignment, potentially exacerbating other spinal conditions. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to manage symptoms and prevent further complications.
There is mild scoliosis of dorsal spine with convexity to left?
treatment for mild scoliosis of cervico dorsal spine with convexity towards left side
Can scoliosis possibly and especially around the neck area cause snoring?
Yes, scoliosis, particularly in the cervical region, can contribute to snoring. The curvature of the spine can affect the alignment of the neck, potentially narrowing the airways during sleep. This narrowing may lead to obstructed airflow, resulting in snoring. Additionally, muscle tension and discomfort from scoliosis can further impact breathing patterns while sleeping.
What is mild thoracic scoliosis?
Well, scoliosis is a curvature of the spine. The cervicothoracic part deals with the location of the curve. The cervical region is the neck, and the thoracic is the upper back. So the cervicothoracic scoliosis would be a curvature of the spine in the neck/upper back
What is the lateral curvation of the spine called?

Does 45 degree scoliosis effect lung capacity?
When curvature is severe and located in the thoracic and cervical regions, scoliosis can impinge on the space that houses the heart and lungs. In severe cases, lung or heart capacity can be compromised, causing shortness of breath or heart problems, thereby necessitating more aggressive treatment. When scoliosis deforms the ribs, this can cause similar problems. In very severe cases, patients with diminished lung capacity must use supplemental oxygen.
Where does scoliosis mainly affect?
Scoliosis is a descriptive term for a spinal condition. Scoliosis means curvature
