Possible problems

- Spinal deformity

• This will also cause the posture to become skewed, the mobility of the spine segments that cause the curvature to decrease, and the spine to be unable to straighten automatically. It affects the beauty of the body and mental health, such as low self-identity and low self-esteem.
• People with scoliosis often have asymmetrical problems such as uneven shoulder height and tilt of the left and right shoulder blades and pelvic bones . The appearance is affected , but in fact, it is also because the heart, lungs, and stomach cannot obtain enough balanced space for health. development, which limits respiratory capacity, heart, lungs, and digestive functions .
• Because the lungs are blocked from breathing, breathing may be difficult in mild cases, and in severe cases, breathing may be difficult.
• People whose lungs have weak breathing capacity, poor oxygen supply to the body, and insufficient heart pumping capacity will be prone to fatigue.
• If it compresses the gastrointestinal space, it will easily make the body's digestion and absorption worse, often leading to malnutrition due to inability to eat. According to Chinese medicine theory, the spleen governs muscles, which will make it more difficult to increase muscle mass.
• On the other hand, scoliosis can also lead to differences in body muscle development . It is very common to have imbalances in muscle strength on the left and right sides of the body. In addition, imbalances in the shoulders, back, ribs, abdomen and pelvis lead to A condition in which some muscles are overly tense and cannot exert force on others. Over time, it may develop into back pain, waist pain, gluteal or pelvic pain, or muscle fatigue, soreness, etc.
• When the spine bends abnormally, it can easily compress the spinal nerves that run through the entire spine, which is what we often hear about compressed nerve lines .

Problems caused by compression of nerves

• Affecting the transmission of nerve messages, the body's perception, control, and response to external stimuli will decrease, or abnormal sensations of cold/heat/pain may occur. It is also easy to suffer from reduced muscle control, muscle paralysis, and weakness. Collision and fall injuries may occur.
• The compressed nerve has its own control range, and if it is compressed, corresponding symptoms will occur.
• If C1-C3 is compressed, dizziness, tinnitus, headache, etc. are most likely to occur.
• If C4-7 is compressed, shoulder and arm pain, hand numbness, shoulder blade pain, etc. will occur.
• If T1-5 is compressed, palpitations, chest tightness, shortness of breath, etc. may occur.
• If T6-9 is compressed, indigestion, stomach pain, liver and gallbladder symptoms, etc. may occur.
• Such as compression to T10-12 kidney function problems, waist and flank pain, etc.
• If L1-5 is compressed, lumbosacral pain, weakness, and heel pain will occur.
