Scoliosis: Overview, Symptoms, Causes, Types, Exercises, Treatment and Management

For adults

Use of Painkillers

The treatment protocols followed for adults are different than children, especially when the back pain is extremely severe. The treatment will be mainly focused on providing relief from the pain. However, if there is no pain, then treatment might not even be needed.

Use of Painkillers

Painkillers are required to provide relief from the pain associated with scoliosis. NSAIDs like aspirin and ibuprofen are the first treatment options for relieving pain and inflammation. These medicines are available at almost every pharmacy, but as NSAIDs do not suit everyone, before using them, speak to the pharmacist and check the leaflet if it is suitable for you.
