Patients with scoliosis may experience pain from time to time. These cases can vary between age groups, severity, and overall health. The most common way scoliosis causes pain is by pressing down on nerves and joints in the body.

Pain is uncommon in adolescent cases because as they are growing, the curve is not impacting any joints or nerves. Because these patients are not feeling any limitations yet, their condition is often underestimated and untreated.

Adult patients usually start experiencing pain after 40 years old after progressing due to gravity. In these cases where the pain begins years later, it is harder for the patient to realize this is scoliosisrelated pain. This is when they start treating the pain instead of the curve, leading to even more scoliosis progression.

The most common areas affected by scoliosisrelated pain are the lower extremities. These areas include hips, knees, and feet. Other areas that can develop pain are the lower back, shoulders, neck, and head.

The ideal approach to treating scoliosis pain is to evaluate the patient's current status and review their past XRays to determine how much their condition has progressed. The patient should also be given a customized, coordinated, comprehensive, multimodal treatment to reduce their scoliosis.

At Scoliosis Reduction Center, we focus on reducing the curve to manage the patient's pain and improve spine function. These goals can be achieved through various techniques of chiropractic care, inoffice rehabilitation, home exercises, and corrective bracing.

Have you ever wondered what scoliosis pain feels like? Dealing with many different scoliosis cases, Dr. Nalda sees a wide variety of effects it can have on the body. Adult patients are usually the ones that deal with some type of pain. The progressive factors of an adolescent versus an adult can help identify the cause of pain. The lack of compression in adolescents when they are growing will often not cause pain in their curve. It is important to realize that just because a patient is not experiencing pain does not mean they should not take action. Adults usually feel pain because compression occurs due to gravity. This slow compressive force can cause pain to nerves, discs and tissues around the spine. During progression in an adult, their torso can shift to one side and begin to affect lower extremities. In order to help deal with the pain, a patient needs to work on reducing the spinal curve. At the Scoliosis Reduction Center we work with patients to create a customized treatment plan specific to each patient. One cannot just treat pain as pain, one needs to correct the cause. Dr. Nalda advises patients to put in the time to reduce their spinal curve, because it will often lead to a decrease in pain.
