Adult Degenerative Scoliosis

Adult degenerative scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine that develops in adulthood, typically after the age of 50. Unlike adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, which often occurs during growth, adult degenerative scoliosis is linked to the wear and tear of the spine over time. Common causes include degeneration of spinal discs, arthritis, and changes in the facet joints. As the spine curves, individuals may experience back pain, stiffness, and in some cases, nerve compression leading to leg pain or weakness. Treatment approaches for adult degenerative scoliosis focus on managing symptoms and may include physical therapy, pain medications, and lifestyle modifications. In more severe cases or when conservative measures fail, surgical interventions such as spinal fusion may be considered to stabilize the spine and alleviate symptoms. Regular monitoring and collaboration with healthcare professionals are essential for managing adult degenerative scoliosis and improving the quality of life for affected individuals.
