Scoliosis is a common medical condition wherein there is a sideways curve of the spine or backbone. The curve is often shaped as an S or C. In most of the cases, the reason for this is not known. It can affect all age groups. However, the most types are idiopathic in children aged between 10-12 years. It can also run in families. So, therefore, a child who has a parent or sibling with this condition must have regular checkups.  Now the treatment of Scoliosis is possible with the use corrective brace.
