The early detection of scoliosis, is so important that Dr. Howard An, a leading spinal surgeon; and Dr. Christopher DeWald, the head of spinal deformity at the Midwest Orthopedics at Rush (MOR); have created a Do-At-Home-Test to detect the onset of the disease. They are making it available to the public for free! Scoliosis is a disease of the spine that develops gradually over time. It is the irregular curvature of the spine, usually in a a “C” or an “S” shape. It is very important for early detection of scoliosis in children.

If it is left undetected and thus untreated, it can lead to complications with the heart and with the lungs. You can order your free Scoliosis Test in the pediatric section of www.rushortho.com. The assessment comes with a 9×40 inch chart to help parents keep track of the spine health and growth of their child. It also includes a life size spine graphic and helpful information on how to recognize scoliosis. It is important to find and address problems before they become to unmanageable.
