There are rare types of this condition that can be caused by neuromuscular conditions such as cerebral palsy, spinal birth defects, birth defects to other bones, and spinal injuries. It sometimes shows up genetically in families, but in many cases, there is no family history of the condition at all. It is believed that there are genetic components of this condition, but for the most common causes of scoliosis, there are no known causes. Scoliosis can also cause patients to suffer from lower back pain. When there is more pressure on the lungs and heart from the rib cage, it can also cause heart problems and make it harder for the heart to work. It can also cause there to be less space available inside the chest, leading to breathing problems due to cramped lungs. Scoliosis in its severe form can be disabling. Even a mild case of scoliosis can cause serious problems if left untreated. It often begins when a child has their growth spurt right before puberty starts, and it can become worse as time passes.
