A member asked:
What treatment and/or bracing methods are used for a patient with scoliosis? (26)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
External brace: The initial treatment would be external bracing, if this does not help to correct the curvature, or it becomes worse despite the brace, surgery for stability may be necessary
