This injury is sudden. It is most commonly seen in athletes playing on artificial fields, which is harder than grass and cleats are more likely to stick. It can also happen on a grass, especially if the shoe being worn doesn't provide good support for the foot If left untreated turf toe could make it really hard for you to walk on the injured foot The best way to prevent Turf Toe is to wear stiff-soled shoes that prevent the toe from bending too much. You can also get special cushioned inserts that can help. Many athletes also tape their toes to keep them from bending back too far.

Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt just before puberty. While scoliosis can be caused by conditions such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, the cause of most scoliosis is unknown. Most patients with untreated adolescent idiopathic scoliosis function at or near normal levels, even though pain is more prevalent. Self-image is often slightly diminished. Mental health is usually normal Exercise does not seem to prevent scoliosis from getting worse, but strong back muscles can help reduce the achy pain often associated with scoliosis. A simple way to assess for a curved spine is to bend forward at the waist, hands hanging to the floor, and have someone look at your shoulder blades
