Patient's question:
The daughter of your sister was diagnosed with congenital spinal deformity at almost nine months old, causing spinal curvature. Can this be treated? What are the reasons for this congenital deformity during pregnancy? Currently, which hospital would be the best for the child to receive treatment?Doctor's answer:
Scoliosis is generally a congenital issue related to the growth and development of children. From a clinical diagnostic perspective, it can be corrected through fixed treatment methods. If it is discovered when the child is around 9 months old, then fixed manipulation techniques can be used to control and realign it. Alternatively, surgery can be performed after the child grows older. Generally, early treatment involves fixation. Pay attention to rest and avoid overexertion.
