4Spinal Injections
In many cases, scoliosis would put pressure and irritate the nerves around or in your spine. This leads to some health issues such as a tingling sensation, numbness, and pain which would be felt around the feet or in the lower back. To alleviate these problems, your doctor might suggest the injections of local anesthetic or steroid medications in the back. You would get immediate relief after a few minutes of performing the procedure. However, keep in mind that the effects of these injections only last a couple of weeks or months. Therefore, you should combine it with other long-term treatments to deal with scoliosis. [4]
