Episode 26: What Is Severe Scoliosis?

Subscribe:

Patients with Severe Scoliosis are the most common patients Dr. Tony Nalda sees in his office.

The reason why is that these patients, unfortunately, follow the exact prescription their traditional doctors gave them and then they end up in a position where they would normally be recommended Scoliosis surgery.

What are the three categories of Scoliosis?

Mild Scoliosis: between 10 and 25 degrees on a Cobb angle
Moderate Scoliosis: 25 and 40 degrees on a Cobb angle.
Severe Scoliosis: Once your curve breaks 40 degrees.

Dr. Tony Nalda has a fourth category called Very Severe Scoliosis.

In this episode, you will learn about symptoms of Severe Scoliosis such as:

Unleveled Shoulders
Rib Deviation
Asymmetrical Shoulder Height
Asymmetrical Waist Line
Asymmetrical Hip Height
Head Not Being Centered with the Body
Postural Changes
Forward Head Posture
Flat Back Syndrome
Arching
Sway Back

And a lot more.

Initially, when patients start to move into the adult stage, they can become hyperkyphotic.

Dr. Tony Nalda also mentioned when the patient’s lung capacity is already affected if you have Scoliosis.
