Scoliosis at early condition has no symptoms such as pain and discomfort. It is normally discovered by parents when the child's spine is bent to the left and right obviously.
Parents can start to pay attention to the following symptoms when they are about 8 years old:
Whether the left and right shoulder blades level (the 'chicken wing position') are different?
The pelvic (the buttocks) or the waist is tilted?
Whether the left and right shoulders height is uneven?
Is body tend to left or right side during walking?
檢查有助及早發現
定期檢查更有效控制有關情況
我們引入由香港理工大學研發之三維超聲波脊柱側彎評估系統 (3D ultrasound imaging for scoliosis),以更快、更安全及更準確的方式進行脊柱側彎掃瞄評估。
