Scoliosis 
Scoliosis is typically defined as a curving of the spine. There are three known causes of scoliosis. The first is congenital scoliosis, which occurs while an individual is still in the womb or very young in development, usually apparent at birth. Congenital scoliosis is due to a problem with the formation of the spine bones (vertebrae). The second cause is neuromuscular scoliosis and is due to muscle weakness, poor muscle control, or paralysis from muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, spina bifida, or polio. The third cause is idiopathic scoliosis, which has an unknown cause. This is most common in adolescents.
Common symptoms associated with scoliosis are back pain, uneven shoulders or hips, fatigue, and curvature of the spine.
