A: Large rebounds after bracing are uncommon if treatment was well‑timed, but small shifts and slow adult changes can occur; Dorsi provides long‑term follow‑up and adult programmes to manage any late progression.
A: Adult care focuses on pain, function, and life goals; Dorsi usually starts with exercise, bracing, and ergonomics and only considers surgery in selected, more severe cases.
A: It’s a curve that develops or worsens later in life due to disc and joint wear, sometimes causing back or leg pain; most cases seen at Dorsi improve with non‑surgical care like targeted physio, adult bracing, and lifestyle changes.
A: It can raise fall risk and make daily tasks harder when combined with weaker bones and muscles; Dorsi addresses strength, balance, footwear, and home hazards to sustain independence.
A: It may combine with arthritis and osteoporosis to cause pain and balance concerns, but tailored exercise, pain strategies, and support help many remain mobile; Dorsi promotes “active ageing” rather than inactivity.
A: Menopause, bone density loss, and disc degeneration can all influence curves; Dorsi reassesses adults at these stages and focuses on bone health, conditioning, and sometimes bracing to slow change.
A: Yes, gradual late progression can occur due to wear‑and‑tear and bone loss; Dorsi recommends periodic adult reviews to catch change early and manage it conservatively where possible.
