FUSION all the way!!
Spinal fusion involves the surgical treatment of abnormalities in the vertebrae, such as curvatures, scoliosis or kyphosis, or injuries (fractures).
If you can sit in a seat and walk limited distances, then you can fly in an airplane.
Michael John McMaster has written: 'Posterior spinal fusion in scoliosis surgery'
Spinal fusion for scoliosis is usually very successful in partially or completely correcting the deformity. Spinal fusion for pain is less uniformly successful because the cause of the pain cannot always be completely identified.
Yes, it is possible (beam target fusion).
I was diagnosed with scoliosis when I was 11 and went to the doctor every 6 months. When I was 13 I was told that the curve was only 8. If the curve is 10 degrees and under then you are OK and your scoliosis has basically gone away. So to answer your question scoliosis does go away.
Conventional orthopedic treatment for scoliosis consists of observation only for spinal curves less than 25*, rigid bracing for curves 25-40*, and multiple level spinal fusion surgery for curves 40* or more. Most patients and parents find this treatment model unappealing and thus new efforts to find a scoliosis exercise based approach have been developed in recent years like the Early Stage Scoliosis Intervention program for mild scoliosis or the Scoliosis BootCamp program for moderate to severe scoliosis.
Yes but I supposed if you got a tattoo while your curve was severe, then say you had spinal fusion surgery and the curve was reduced, the tattoo may shift or change shape.
It is not possible unless a Professional does it.
