Cervical scoliosis??
Question: When i was a kid around 1 years old to 8 .they said i had something called torquoilous
i dont know how to spell it but. they said it limited my neck motion. i could turn my neck to the right all the way. and then they made me do stretches and i could move it to the right again.
but then after stopped doing the stretches it happened again.
im 14 now. and one shoulder has more muscle i cant reach my right shoulder with my chin.
and i got x rays today.
and they said i have scoliosis in my cervical. my mom says it looks like it about 5-10 degrees in the curve.
also. three of the disks are really close together or they're fused i think.
whats wrong with my discs?
and do you think that physical therepy and chirapractors can make my spine straighter??
and why does it look like my right shoulder has more muscle more than the left??
help please.
also my mom said my shoulder blades are uneven and they look about an inch apart??
Answers: There isn't anything which can be done to mobilize the fused discs. The scoliosis can be improved by surgery, that decision is for the doctors to make. The scoliosis will mean that you have less movement on one side so its completely normal to have less muscle on one side, for the same reason your shoulder blades will be uneven.
Sometimes a brace is tried before surgery, the degree of success is variable on individual cases.
I'm not sure about any connection between face development and scoliosis so I won't comment on that part of your question.
