Today in the old revolutionary area of Ganzhou Xingguo County, the patients are extremely severe scoliosis, the questions are also a variety of spinal deformities, including ankylosing spondylitis, are in the “indigenous treatment” acupuncture, orthopedic, massage, etc., really should come out to give you a little science about the treatment of scoliosis. I have been in spine surgery for decades, and every day I get questions from scoliosis patients or their families; can this device cure scoliosis? Is that approach effective for scoliosis? As a doctor I understand the desire of the patient’s family for treatment and the fear of surgical treatment, but you must be sensible about the disease. Some parents find their children have scoliosis very nervous, and even do not know what to do, and often go around to doctors, there are calcium supplements, massage massage orthopedic, wearing a brace undershirt, in short, heard what method is useful, take the child to treatment, the results have little effect, but some have the opposite effect, delaying the disease. The first method: observation method; first of all, this method is only suitable for patients with scoliosis below 10 degrees! Patients return to the hospital every 4-6 months for a physical examination and, if necessary, a full spine X-ray. During this period, patients need to pay attention to the correction of their posture when living and learning. The second method: properly instructed physical training, also suitable only for patients with 10 to 20 degrees of scoliosis, controls the progression of scoliosis by strengthening the muscles around the spine and targeted corrective movements. Gymnastics, swimming, single and double bar exercise can be effective in strengthening the muscle strength around the spine. The third method: brace therapy, suitable for patients with 20 to 40 degrees of scoliosis; on the basis of medical form training, the use of brace therapy, that is, wearing orthotics, on the scoliosis of the part to apply a reverse squeezing pressure, to achieve the effect of stopping the development of scoliosis. However, it is not suitable for children who are too young to cooperate. The fourth method: surgical treatment; suitable for scoliosis patients with 5 degrees/year of scoliosis progression The best surgery is for adolescents and patients with good flexibility. If the appearance of deformity is obvious, conservative treatment can not achieve good results, scoliosis progression of 5 degrees / year, you need surgery as soon as possible.
