More Symptoms of Scoliosis
- According to The New York Times, fatigue from prolonged sitting and standing is a common symptom of scoliosis.
- Back pain is not a significant side effect but may occur in severe cases of scoliosis, especially after spending a lot of time standing. Difficulty breathing is also a symptom in severe cases.
- Unevenness in the waist and shoulders are common symptoms. The body may tilt to one side. This may also give the impression that one side of the body is longer than the other side or that one leg is longer.
- With scoliosis, one shoulder blade may be more prominent than the other shoulder blade.
- The spine may curve laterally to one side. From the back of a normal spine, the spine will look straight. With scoliosis, the spine juts off to one side.
