Painful Adult Scoliosis Treatment Los Angeles & Beverly Hills

Scoliosis is the lateral curving found in the vertical line of the spine. If you view a person from the side, the spine is supposed to appear as round and show a certain degree of inward curvature in the lower back.

Take, for example, a normal spine. If viewed from the front or back, the spine appears as straight. However, if a person with scoliosis is viewed from the front or back, the spine appears as if it is curved.

Adult Scoliosis Treatment

Intelligent Pain Solutions treats all types of simple and complicated pain conditions. like back and neck pain.

What are the Causes of Adult Scoliosis?
- Adult scoliosis has various causes. The first involves when a person has scoliosis as an adolescent, which then continues to worsen after skeletal maturity. If the curve is over 40 degrees when skeletal maturity is reached, then studies show it typically will get worse at a rate of one degree per year. this can add up considerably over a few decades to becoming painful and it may be difficult to stand up straight.
  
  The second cause of adult scoliosis is when it develops by itself. When degeneration of the spine occurs, it does not always occur symmetrically. This may result in spinal curvature along with back and leg pain.
Diagnosis of Scoliosis
- In most case, scoliosis is detected by visual exam and imaging studies. It’s not “rocket science” when a Beverly Hills pain management doctor sees an adult with scoliosis, but an MRI can help see where nerve roots are getting pinched.
What are the Treatment Options for Scoliosis?
- Beverly Hills and Los Angeles pain management doctors offer exceptional treatment options for the back and leg pain from degenerative scoliosis. Here are the potential treatments:
  
  . Trigger point injections – great for spasms
  . Lumbar Radiofrequency Ablation
  . Facet/medial branch blocks – excellent for the arthritis pain in the joints of the spine
  . Radiofrequency ablation – may provide long term relief for back pain, up to 18 months.
  . Epidural steroid injections – these treatments are great for pain relief of spinal stenosis due to pinched nerves from the spinal arthritis.
  Overall, most patients with back and leg pain from adult degenerative scoliosis are able to avoid the need for spinal surgery with the Board Certified pain treatments at Intelligent Pain Solutions. Spinal fusions for adult scoliosis procedures are very difficult and entail significant complication rates.
  
  Therefore, it is exciting that pain relief is achievable without it. At Intelligent Pain Solutions, most insurance is accepted. Call the practice today!
