If there are suspicions about the development of scoliosis, you can conduct tests every two weeks.

2. At schoolboys. Shoulders are in a level horizontal position. The blades do not protrude, they are pressed to the back. The spine has moderate physiological curves. The abdomen practically does not protrude. Both halves of the body are symmetrical.
3. Young people. The blades are tightly pressed to the back. The nipples are located at the same level, there is a triangle of the waist. The belly does not stand out at all, he is involved.

Scoliosis in children

Children get scoliosis at home as well as adults. Scoliosis in childhood is better to treat. It is recommended to regularly ride a bicycle, go swimming. Watch your posture.
