Scoliosis is defined as a spinal condition where the spine is curved to the side at an angle of ten degrees or more. Scoliosis happens when your spine develops a sideways curve, resulting to a notion of stiffness or pain. Sometimes the curve is temporary which may be caused by muscle spasms, inflammation, or different leg lengths. Scoliosis is more likely to occur in late childhood and in early teens, when children grow fast.
