This position of hubs with a goodlooking ang moh behind him is a rare sight.
I was alarmed when Nick told me that girls are more likely to have scoliosis and since both Azmi and I have it, our daughters would probably have it too.
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is the most common type and typically occurs after the age of 10.
If you're daughter is 10 (boys are diagnosed slightly later in age), you can do your own physical examination by asking her/him to put their hands together and bend down.
Check if the shoulders are level, the head is centered and whether opposite sides of the body look level. Also check if one side of the rib cage is higher than the other.
What @drnickboden is holding is some scoliosis track thingy device. But he tells me you can get a similiar app on both android and iPhone.
Alternatively, he'll do it for free. Just call 03-6204 9100 for an appointment.
I wish I knew I had scoliosis earlier. I could have worn a brace to correct it. Too late now but I can still maintain regular exercises to minimize any potential decrease in functional ability over time.
