What are the causes of adolescent scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a common spinal deformity disease, which generally refers to scoliosis exceeding 10 degrees. The main causes of scoliosis are congenital and acquired. Congenital scoliosis is caused by poor segmentation or formation of the spine, and acquired development, trauma and tumor are more common causes of scoliosis deformity. Usually, adolescent scoliosis refers to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, which is the most common type of scoliosis, accounting for 80% of the incidence of scoliosis. The incidence of adolescent scoliosis is 2-3%, which is a rare disease, but its etiology is still unclear. Adolescent scoliosis usually begins at the age of 10- 18, because this is the second fastest stage of adolescent physical growth and development. At this stage, spinal deformity will obviously develop with the physical development of children, especially when girls have their first menstruation.
