When
a kid complains about something, sometimes we simply brush it off thinking the
kid is simply seeking attention/trying to ask for something/over reacting.
However, when it’s backache, we shouldn't take it so lightly. Just think of the
growing number of children suffering from scoliosis (a medical condition
wherein there’s a curve from side to side in a person’s spine) until their
teenage and adult years just because their condition wasn’t taken care of early
on.
What
happens then is that, the minor misalignment in the pliable spine of a child
develops into a curvatures that leads to serious spinal problems in the future.
Scoliosis Development
First: The normal front to back arches in
the spine fails to develop, that results to spinal disc carrying unusual
weight.
Second: It develops into subluxation
wherein the center of some disc leans to one side, and the vertebra to the
other. As a reaction to this misalignment, the spine shifts to another side at
another level resulting to scoliosis.
To
control the increasing curve of the spine and correct it along the way,
chiropractic care proves to be the most effective way treatment.
In
some studies in scoliosis of experts, the have observed that the extended
period of sitting in classrooms actually adds to the improper development of
normal spine curves Even other circumstances that we see as normal like school
exercises such as bending over touching the toes, and even the playpens and
walkers that encourages children to walk too soon contributes to that.
However,
this can be mended if detected early through regular chiropractic exams.
Hence,
misalignments and dislocations such as these can be corrected by administering
spinal adjustments that chiropractors mainly use as their main method of
treatment. It is also possible that
hereditary development, short leg, pelvic distortions, certain diseases, aside
from accidents and negligence, are causing the development of curvature.
Either
way, early detection and chiropractic care can still save your kids from suffering
to more serious conditions, most especially avoid surgery or bracing.
