Case Study 039: Y.M.
Introduction: In March 2020, a 25-year-old female patient, Y.M., was diagnosed with scoliosis. The initial diagnosis revealed an S-curve of 39 degrees on the top right curve and 23 degrees on the bottom left curve. The patient’s symptoms included uneven shoulders, a posture slightly leaning to one side, a straight neck, irritability, forgetfulness, stress, and numbness and cold hands and feet.
Treatment: The treatment plan for Y.M. included: 2-week intensive care treatment, disc hydration treatment, spinal and neck traction therapy, dormant muscle activation treatment, and neck C-curve restoration treatment. Alongside these treatments, Y.M. was also prescribed posture correction exercises. An order-made corset was recommended as part of the treatment plan.
Outcome: After the 2-week intensive treatment, significant improvements were observed. The curvature reduced to 29 degrees on the top right curve and 20 degrees on the bottom left curve. The patient reported a decrease in pain and discomfort, and an improvement in posture was also noted.
Conclusion: The treatment plan was effective in managing the patient’s scoliosis. The combination of intensive care treatment, specific exercises, and therapies resulted in a significant reduction in the degree of curvature and alleviation of pain. This case shows how important a complete treatment plan is in treating scoliosis.
