Scoliosis
Scoliosis is a condition where the curvature of the spine is affected and grows sideways unnaturally. It can cause a host of health issues to pop up due to the uneven distribution, with middle back pain as one of the most common symptoms. Typically, those who have scoliosis are treated in the form of a brace worn around the torso to help retain the body’s overall shape. Some people with very mild scoliosis don’t need treatment, but they do need to go for regular checkups to ensure that the curvature is not getting worse with time. Scoliosis can be stressful, and typically results in pain, but the various ways to treat the condition makes it easier to manage today compared to years ago.
In the event that adults with scoliosis suffer from more severe symptoms, it’s not uncommon for surgery to be one of the potential solutions. Otherwise, it’s a mix of painkillers and spinal injections to help deal with the problems that come with scoliosis.
