➡️ What is Kyphoscoliosis?
Kyphoscoliosis can occur at any age, and approximately 80% of cases are idiopathic, meaning there is no known cause. However, it is believed to be caused by prolonged bad posture, degenerative diseases, neuromuscular diseases, connective tissue diseases, tuberculosis, or congenital factors.

➡️ Symptoms
The symptoms of kyphoscoliosis may vary, ranging from a slouch or abnormal hunch to negative effects on the lungs, heart, and muscles of respiration. In severe cases, it can result in symptoms such as disfigurement, back pain, paralysis, respiratory failure, and neurological issues.

➡️ Treatment
The treatment methods for kyphoscoliosis depend on the severity of the condition and include noninvasive options such as checkups, scoliosis bracing, pain management, and physical therapy, as well as surgical options such as spinal fusion or the installation of an adjustable rod.

➡️ Complications
Complications may arise, and the outlook depends on early detection and treatment. Living with kyphoscoliosis can be challenging; however, the symptoms can usually be managed with appropriate medical treatment. If you suspect that you or a loved one may have kyphoscoliosis, it's important to seek medical attention. A doctor can perform a physical examination, imaging tests, and other diagnostic tests to determine the extent and severity of the condition.
