Early signs of scoliosis often go unnoticed. Knowing these symptoms helps protect spinal health and prevent future complications.
SCOLIOSIS SYMPTOMS YOU MUST NEVER IGNORE
UNEVEN SHOULDERS OR WAIST
One shoulder or hip may appear higher than the other. This is often an early visible sign of scoliosis.
VISIBLE SPINAL CURVE
The spine may curve in a C or S shape when viewed from behind. This abnormal curve can become more noticeable as scoliosis progresses.
LEANING TO ONE SIDE
The body may tilt to one side while standing or walking due to spinal imbalance. This can affect posture balance and daily movement.
RIB PROMINENCE
One side of the rib cage may stick out more especially when bending forward. This rib prominence often indicates a twist in the spine caused by scoliosis.
