Scoliosis is a medical condition where the spine curves abnormally to the side, forming an S-shaped or C-shaped curve.

When is scoliosis surgery needed?

Surgery is recommended for severe scoliosis cases where the spinal curve is progressive, typically when the Cobb angle is significant and non-surgical treatments like bracing are not effective.

What types of scoliosis surgery are performed?

Common procedures include posterior spinal fusion, anterior spinal correction, and in some cases minimally invasive techniques using rods, screws, and bone grafts to straighten and stabilize the spine.

What is recovery like after scoliosis surgery?

Recovery involves a hospital stay, pain management, gradual physical therapy, and several months of rehabilitation as the spine heals and fuses into proper alignment.
