Suggest treatment for bent back bone with difficulty to walk
Patient: What is an actual bent back bone because i have been to the doctors an got told i had a bent back bone an since then just got on with my life but recently its starting to hurt me, when i walk short distances should i go to the doctors an let them have a look? Doctor: Hi,  By saying bent back doctors means that a person is having scoliosis. Scoliosis is of three types and its progression depends on the type as well as on initial degree of the condition. Treatment of scoliosis is conservative with braces in initial stages and operative in later stages when scoliosis starts causing additional symptoms. You need to visit an spine surgeon to evaluate you clinically and to guide you regarding further management.  Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
