Scoliosis is often found during a well-child checkup or school screening. A child with scoliosis may not have any symptoms yet. More severe curves may cause symptoms, such as:
- Uneven shoulder blades
- Uneven hip bones
- Large shoulder blades or ribs on 1 side
- Uneven waist
- Appearance of leaning to 1 side
- Tired muscles after sitting for a long time
- Back pain
