Wearing a cast

Wearing a cast

If scoliosis is not getting better with treatment to straighten the spine as It grows, a cast can be recommended in babies with the curve. A plaster cast is fitted around the back of children; this cast cannot be removed and needs to be constantly worn. The cast is changed every few months as the child grows. Parents usually find the wearing of cast easier than getting their children to wear the removable back brace every day.
