Can anterior pelvic tilt be corrected?

In most cases, anterior pelvic tilt can be corrected. For patients who present with this condition, functional exercises can be used to correct it when the lesion is mild. For example, patients can be instructed to practice sit-ups, planks, pull-ups, and other functional exercises. On top of that, patients need to be instructed to change their standing posture and pay attention to abdominal retraction. Most of the patients can get obvious relief in about 1~3 months through this kind of treatment. For some patients with more severe lesions, such as those with lumbar spine or hip joint bony deformities, surgical treatment may be required. For example, for patients with severe lumbar vertebral body slippage, the diseased lumbar and sacral vertebrae need to be repositioned through surgery, and relevant internal fixation devices need to be implanted in order to orthopedically correct the patient. In summary, in most cases, patients with anterior pelvic tilt are able to obtain good correction. In a few cases, the reason for the lack of correction is that the patient is not able to consult the doctor early enough or is not able to cooperate with the doctor to perform a series of functional exercises during the treatment. Therefore, it is recommended that these patients should maintain their confidence in curing the disease after the onset of the disease and go to an orthopedic clinic as soon as possible.
