Symptoms Of Kyphoscoliosis

Kyphoscoliosis is an irregular spinal curve on two different planes simultaneously. The abnormality is on the side to side plane or the coronal plane, and on the back to the front plane or the sagittal plane. The term is created from a combination of two irregular spine conditions called scoliosis and kyphosis. In scoliosis, the spine twists sideways abnormally, and in kyphosis, the spine twists forward or backward abnormally. This condition can happen at any stage of life and can be present at birth as well. There is no known cause of kyphoscoliosis in eighty percent of diagnosed cases.
