Vejthani Hospital has created a new Spine Center in Bangkok, Thailand, that offers modern technology and techniques to treat a range of spine issues.

Our everyday lifestyles that include activities such as sitting, lying down or lifting heavy objects incorrectly are contributing factors that damage the spinal cord.

Although exercising makes your body healthy, incorrect or improper ways of exercising have risks of affecting physical health.

Spinal curves are measured in Cobb angles, which can be seen from X-rays. Scoliosis can mostly be noticed from childhood to teenage years

When it comes to scoliosis, many people are not aware of having this disease and may unintentionally discover it during a yearly health check

Scoliosis surgery is performed by attaching small screws to the spine and use a special rod to attach each of the screws together, while adjusting the angles

Normally spinal cord deteriorates from being used and from ageing, especially for patients over 40 years old. Initial signs of deterioration include neck pain and lower back pain.

Back pain in general may only seem like a common symptom among office workers or those who sit in front of a computer for a long time

Mild: There is no spinal cord compression associated, but the patient may experience pain in the neck, shoulder, and shoulder blades.
