What is Dextroscoliosis?
Dextroscoliosis is a type of scoliosis in which the spine curves to the right side of the body. Since the curve is to the right, this type of scoliosis may impact the rib cage on the right and cause problems with the kidney and lungs. Treatment may include physical therapy or a brace.
