The people who suffer with scoliosis disorder develop defective curve in the either side of the spine and the bones of the spine forms a twist which gives a C or S- shaped scoliosis curve.
Some of the known causes of scoliosis have been identified as muscular dystrophy and cerebral palsy whereas in many cases the cause of scoliosis is still unknown. It has also been discovered that Scoliosis is more common in girls than in boys, it affects about 2% of females whereas only 0.5% of males.

As the spinal curve increases, the amount of space in the chest starts decreasing causing disability in the proper functionality of lungs.
