Scoliosis: facts and fiction for the family physician
Abstract:
Idiopathic scoliosis is a common deformity in the adolescent age group. It is now known to be a hereditary condition, demanding careful family scrutiny. Furthermore, studies of the natural history have proven its serious long term consequences. As spinal curvatures may progress insidiously and relentlessly, early diagnosis becomes the hallmark of management. Mass screening for spinal curvatures by family physicians and medical resource personnel is recommended as a practical approach to early definition of this problem.

Vertebral Column: Regions and Curvature
Regions of the Vertebral Column
In an adult, the spine is subdivided into five regions: the cervical, the thoracic, the lumbar, the sacral, and the coccygeal region. The spine initially develops as a series of 33 vertebrae; after 20 years of age, the nine bones in the sacral region, five sacral, and four coccygeal bones fuse to form the...

Disorders of the Skeletal Muscle
Musculoskeletal disorders
Musculoskeletal disorders involve injuries and conditions affecting the skeletal muscles and associated connective tissues. These disorders can arise from acute biomechanical stresses or chronic overuse and can occur across different age groups. Common injuries include sprains, fractures, and muscular strains, often resulting from...

Components of the Skeletal System
Bone, or osseous tissue, is a hard connective tissue that forms an internal support structure for the human body. Bones shield vulnerable organs and soft tissue from external forces. For example, the vertebral bones protect and support the spinal cord.
