What Is Mild Scoliosis?

Watch Dr. Shyam Kishan explain Mild Scoliosis.

Scoliosis is a muscular disorder in which the spine curves to the left or right when viewed from the back -- creating an S or C-shaped curve. Our physicians diagnose and treat all types of scoliosis in children at our practice. We see cases from mild to severe and offer the most advanced conservative treatment options. Most children with this condition may not need complex treatments, but they do need to be evaluated.

To begin with, our treatment starts with a comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis of a child. Together, we will discuss options with honesty and compassion. We partner with parents every step of the way. Thus, we can develop a personalized treatment plan for your child that makes you feel comfortable and confident in your decision.

In many cases, our team of specialists will follow up with you and your child in four to six months. Then, we will monitor your child's progress into adulthood when the disease can become more severe. Or determine that your child's risk is so low that your child's condition will not progress.

If your child has scoliosis or a complex spine condition, contact us today for a thorough evaluation by one of our pediatric orthopedics; call us today at 214-556-0583.
