Not many people knew about it before
But with morbidity and society
Increasing attention to the health of adolescent students

Many sports celebrities suffer from the "same disease"
In recent years, abnormal spinal curvature has become an important problem that endangers the health of children and adolescents.
"Although the incidence of scoliosis is not low, the degree of its impact on life and sports mainly depends on the degree of scoliosis." Chief Physician Wang Yue, Deputy Director of the Department of Orthopedics of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, said, "People with scoliosis within 20 degrees basically have little impact on daily life, except for the mild abnormality of the appearance such as shoulder inequality, which does not cause functional impairment. ”
"The incidence of idiopathic scoliosis in adolescents is about 3%, which is not negligible!" Wang Yue said that idiopathic scoliosis often occurs in people aged 10 to 20 years old, and it is common in girls, with an incidence rate of about 1:4 in men and women.
Zhang Yufei, a swimmer who previously won the honor of "Moving China 2023 Person of the Year", was publicly reported by the media to suffer from scoliosis. Previously, in training, Cui Dengrong, the coach of the Chinese swimming team, found that she had a problem with her swimming style - the correct butterfly stroke, the sides of the body should be completely symmetrical. After Zhang Yufei went into the water, his arms and shoulders, one in front and one behind, one shallow and one deep, were found to be caused by scoliosis.
Not only Zhang Yufei, but also "Flyer" Bolt also suffers from scoliosis, and NBA player Maddie also suffers from scoliosis.
Wang Yue said that for ordinary people, mild scoliosis will certainly not have a big impact, but for competitive athletes and athletes who are going to international competitions, scoliosis may cause them some trouble.
Stilted legs, bent sleeping position can also cause scoliosis?
The truth may be more complicated than it seems.
Wang Yu, chief physician of the Department of Spine Surgery at Peking University First Hospital, said that the incidence of scoliosis is as high as 3%, and the severity is 1‰. The cause of scoliosis is not simply incorrect sitting and sleeping posture, and the causes of scoliosis vary from age to age.
In children and adolescents, idiopathic scoliosis is the most common type, and its specific cause is unknown, but it may be related to genes or some intrinsic factors in growth and development. In addition, congenital scoliosis is related to the influence of physical and chemical factors during pregnancy, while scoliosis in the elderly is related to the aging and deformation of the lumbar spine.
Scoliosis progressively worsens with age, affecting balance, breathing, heart function, and even paralysis in severe cases.
How do you self-test for scoliosis?
How should parents judge
Does your child have scoliosis?
Children can be allowed to perform forward bending experiments
That is, keep your feet together and shoulder-width apart
Point your fingers on your toes and bend over 90 degrees
Observe whether the height of the two sides of the back is the same height
If you notice that the two sides of the back are different in height
It is advisable to go to the hospital
Further diagnosis is made
