A surgery carried out in the morning gives an evening discharge to the patient. Why I'm insisting a medical surgery for you? Surgery will not only prevent your spinal progression or growth, but also reduces the deformity of your back. It sets the spine to the nearest accurate shape and your scoliosis won't be visible. In retaining the form and shape of the spine, a rod is inserted into the back and nuts and bolts are used to keep it in place. It is carried out with such fine art that you will never feel its presence. You can consult an orthopedic surgeon and get your doubts regarding surgery cleared.
