What Is Scheuermann's Disease?
Scheuermann's Disease is a spinal disease/deformity that presents itself in children during adolescence. It is often noted by an accentuated curvature, or "hunched back" and if left untreated, may lead to significant health complications later in life. Research has shown that .4% - 8% of people are affected by Scheuermann’s.
The Scheuermann’s Disease Fund was created to improve the public's awareness and recognition of this spinal deformity, improve early detection in adolescents, and work with the medical community to better understand the impact that Scheuermann's can have on a person's quality of life as we age.
Find A Doctor
Scheuermann’s disease is very difficult to treat and it affects each patient differently. That can make the search for an experienced spine specialist very challenging. To , the charity has developed an international doctor database where each physician is either referred by a person who has been treated for Scheuermann’s or they are a member of our Medical Advisory Board.
