Patient's question:
A friend of mine recently encountered this issue and stayed in the hospital for a period of time. I visited him, and he said he was a bit in pain and couldn't sleep at night, which greatly affected his state. How can pediatric scoliosis be differentiated?Doctor's answer:
Scoliosis is a disease that primarily affects adolescents. Most cases occur during the peak growth period of adolescence. The accelerated growth of the spine exacerbates the degree of deformity, and the deformity, in turn, affects normal growth and development. This may be related to daily walking or lifestyle habits. It is recommended to sleep on a hard board, take fish oil and calcium gluconate oral solution orally, maintain a light diet, avoid staying up late and overexertion, and drink more water.
