Scoliosis Traumatic

Traumatic scoliosis (s. traumatica) is a condition in which scoliosis (a tortuous curvature of the spine) develops as a result of trauma or damage to the spine. Traumatic scoliosis can be caused by a variety of causes, including car accidents, falls from heights, sports injuries, and other types of injuries.

The main symptoms of traumatic scoliosis are back pain, poor posture and spinal deformity. In some cases, there may be a decrease in spinal mobility, which can lead to limited movement and pain.

To diagnose traumatic scoliosis, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive examination of the patient, including radiography of the spine, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and other research methods. Based on the data obtained, the doctor can determine the degree of spinal curvature and choose the most effective treatment method.

Treatment for traumatic scoliosis may include observation and conservative methods such as physical therapy, orthoses and medications, as well as surgery. The choice of treatment method depends on the degree of spinal curvature and other factors, such as the patient's age and the presence of concomitant diseases.

Overall, traumatic scoliosis is a serious condition that can cause significant limitations in daily life. Patients who are at risk of developing traumatic scoliosis should take precautions to avoid injury and damage to the spine. If symptoms of traumatic scoliosis appear, you should consult a doctor to receive qualified medical care and prevent the progression of the disease.
