We understand that this is a difficult revelation but there's more you need to know. A few thousand years after you all cease to exist, nature gives birth to other animals who gradually evolve into homo sapiens and transform into who we are today. We've developed a civilization that's stronger, smarter, and more capable than you in every way, so we're much better at preserving our species. \nThat said, we couldn't find a way to restore your species, and for that, we are truly sorry. We wish we could help you prevent this grim fate, but we don't know the exact time of the tragedy or even how it happened. Worst case scenario, you guys might get hit by a giant asteroid from outer space, or maybe one of your volcanoes goes off. You might want to look out for those. \nAnyway, we just thought we should let you know about this while sending our condolences along the way. We're sorry for how things turned out, but I guess you guys just weren't meant to stick around, so lucky for us.

There will be a large picture of a T-Rex (or whichever dinosaur you want) with the tail missing. Each child will be given a tail, then blindfolded and tasked with pinning their tail onto the picture of the dinosaur. The child who places their tail as close to the actual position where the tail should be is the winner! \n* Musical dinosaurs: This game is derived from another well-known party game for kids, musical statues. Gather the kids in a large area, such as the backyard or a spacious living room, and start playing music from a TV, radio, or Bluetooth speaker. Instead of dancing, have the kids move around, stomp, and roar like dinosaurs. Stop the music at random intervals. When the music stops, the kids should stay completely still in the position they are in. If the kids move before the music starts playing, they are “out.” The winner is the last kid standing. \n* Dinosaur face painting: Face painting is another timeless party activity that the kids will love, where they get their faces painted with non-toxic, non-permanent paint to resemble something else. You can hire a professional face painter, or if you have an artistic flair, you could even learn how to do it yourself. The kids will have a lot of fun watching themselves transform into their favorite dinosaurs, like the T-Rexe and Triceratops. \n* Dino piñata: Piñatas are a favorite amongst both kids and adults at birthday parties. It involves suspending a paper-mâché figure (the piñata) filled with candy in the air and then letting the kids take turns hitting the piñata in an attempt to break it. Once broken, the candy is released! There are many different piñata designs out there, including plenty that are dinosaur-themed. ", "role": "assistant" } ]

We loved exploring its dusty corners and climbing the apple tree in the backyard. But our favorite thing was the ghost. We called her Mother, because she seemed so kind and nurturing. Some mornings Betsy and I would wake up, and on each of our nightstands, we’d find a cup that hadn’t been there the night before. Mother had left them there, worried that we’d get thirsty during the night. She just wanted to take care of us. Among the homes’ original furnishings was an antique wooden chair which we kept against the back wall of the living room. Whenever we were preoccupied, watching TV or playing a game, Mother would inch that chair forward, across the room, toward us. Sometimes she’d manage to move it all the way to the centre of the room. We always felt sad putting it back against the wall. Mother just wanted to be near us. Years later, long after we’d moved out, I found an old newspaper article about the farmhouse’s original occupant, a widow. She’d murdered her two children by giving them each a cup of poisoned milk before bed. Then she hung herself. The article included a photo of the farmhouse’s living room, with a woman’s body hanging from a beam. Beneath her, knocked over, was that old wooden chair, placed exactly in the center of the room.”\n\nUse some examples from the text to show how you concluded that it is or isn't a scary story.

Be prepared with answers to commonplace interview questions. \n\nWhile no interview is the same as the one before it, there are commonplace questions that may be asked in each interview throughout your work history. For example: \n\n•\tWhere do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? \n•\tWhy do you want to work with our company? \n•\tHow would past employers describe your work ethic? \n\nEven though you’ve seen and been asked the same questions dozens of times, they can still throw you for a mental loop in a moment of nervousness. Prepare your answers beforehand. \n\nWhile not every question is one you can prepare for, there are topics that you know an interviewer will touch upon, such as your interest in the job and your skills for the position. Strive to have an outline of personal responses for anticipated commonplace interview questions and remember that you don’t have to be perfect – just genuine. \n\n2. Be aware of your body language and facial expressions during an interview. \n\nDon’t be robotic, but don’t be totally relaxed in your mannerisms either. Job interviews are professional settings where you strive to make a good first impression. Ergo, your body language and facial expressions should reflect your intent for and interest in the job. \n\nWork on a cordial handshake, make eye contact naturally with your interviewer and be attentive to control nervous tics, like constantly touching your nose or looking away. Interviewers understand that you are nervous, and nobody is perfect in how they cope with nervousness, but you should make an effort to leave behind a good first impression of professionalism and respect. \n\n3. Do your research on the company and ask questions at the end of the interview. \n\nMost potential employers will ask if you have any questions at the end of the interview. This is where you can show attentiveness with proof of research. You should know the ins and outs of the role you apply for, but inquire about the workplace environment with questions like: \n\n•\tWhat is your vision for the company? \n•\tWhat are your expectations of behavior and productivity in the workplace?\n•\tHow can I contribute to this role positively? \n\nWhen you ask questions following an interview, it shows potential employers that you are self-aware and have a genuine interest in the job. \n\n4. Memorize the details of your resume and have answers ready for questions about your job and education history. \n\nIt’s amazing what you can forget the moment when someone asks you a question about your history. Sometimes the nervousness of potentially landing a dream job can overwhelm your senses, so memorize and practice beforehand. You’ve lived your work and education histories, so you know them the best. Be prepared to answer questions about how well you did in education facets or what prompted you to leave one of your earliest work positions.", "role": "assistant" } ]

Are you checking a destination off your bucket list? Heading out to visit friends in another country? Start researching things you want to do and see while \n you're there so you can make sure the timing of your trip and the location of your accommodations will be everything you dreamed of. This is also the time to decide how long \n the trip will be. \n\n- Set a budget.\n - Now that you've done some research on the area you want to explore and the time of year that you want to visit, you should have a basic idea of the approximate prices for \n flights, lodging, rentals, excursions, etc. If you're trying to keep the budget reasonable choose a few areas to splurge — maybe a night in a fancy hotel or an adventure you've \n always wanted to have — and then look for ways to save in other areas.\n\n- Make sure you have the needed passport/visa/other travel documents. \n - You won't get very far without these documents, so make sure they're up-to-date! A quick internet search will tell you if you need any extra visas, etc. Every country has different \n rules regarding how long you can stay as a foreigner, so if you're planning to stay awhile it's important to check these guidelines as well. \n\n- Book your flights.\n - This is the step that makes the whole trip start to feel REAL! If your dates are flexible use the Google Flights calendar to find deals. Other sites like Kayak or Going can also help \n you find good deals. \n\n- Book accommodations.\n - Hotels, AirBnBs, hostels, private rooms, camping, glamping — the options are endless. Look for accommodations that offer a good balance of being easy on the wallet\n but also just easy in general. You might find yourself regretting it if you skimp on the lodging and end up feeling unsafe or uncomfortable. \n\n- Think about the in-between. \n - How will you get from the airport to your hotel?

[ { "content": "Transform the above information into a thrilling narrative centered around the ambitious plans of Axiom Space.\n\nAxiom Space wants to take the off-Earth economy to new heights.\n\nThe Houston-based company, which was founded in 2016, aims to build and operate its own space station in low Earth orbit (LEO) in the coming years. And Axiom has inked deals with SpaceX to fly multiple tourist missions to the International Space Station (ISS), the first of which is set to launch in late February 2022.\n\nSuch projects are part of a grander plan to help humanity extend its footprint beyond its home planet.\n\n\"Axiom's vision of a thriving home in space is about facilitating breakthroughs and perspectives that benefit every human, everywhere — and we provide universal access to low Earth orbit so that innovators, governments and individuals can do the same,\" the company's website reads.\n\nA bevy of high-profile aerospace pros are crafting that vision and working to make it a reality. For example, Axiom's co-founder, president and CEO is Mike Suffredini, who served as NASA’s ISS program manager from 2005 to 2015. \n\nAxiom co-founder and executive chairman Kam Ghaffarian also co-founded Stinger Ghaffarian Technologies, a contractor that trains NASA astronauts and other agency personnel who work in the ISS program.\n\nAdditionally, former space shuttle commander Charlie Bolden, who led NASA from 2009 to 2017, is a business development consultant for Axiom. And former NASA astronauts Michael López-Alegría and Peggy Whitson serve as the company's vice president of business development and astronaut consultant, respectively.\n\nLópez-Alegría and Whitson may have retired from NASA, but they aren't done flying, as you'll see below.\n\nAxiom is taking a stepwise approach to the operation of its commercial space station. The company will launch multiple modules to the ISS; this private hardware will eventually detach and become a free-flying outpost.\n\nThe first of these Axiom pieces is scheduled to go up in September 2024. Three additional modules will follow by the end of 2027, if all goes according to plan.\n\n\"With the delivery of the fourth module, Axiom Station will have the capability to be independent of the ISS and can then separate to become an independent, next-generation space station with upgraded crew quarters, increased payload capacity and a dedicated manufacturing and research lab module,\" Axiom chief technology officer Matt Ondler told Space.com recently.\n\n\"This timeline supports the current planned end of ISS life, so there should be a seamless transition with no gaps in human continuous presence in LEO,\" he said.\n\nThough the ISS is officially approved to operate only through the end of 2024, an extension to 2030 is widely expected. President Joe Biden recently committed to this new timeline, but the other ISS partners — for example, the European Space Agency, the Canadian Space Agency, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and Russia's federal space corporation, Roscosmos — need to sign on as well.\n\nAxiom Station and other commercial outposts in LEO — and there are others in the works — should create new opportunities for microgravity research, product development, tourism and manufacturing, among other activities, Ondler said.\n\n\"A commercial space station also offers cost-saving opportunities for agencies like NASA to conduct fundamental space science research and prepare astronauts for longer missions to the moon, and on to Mars, without the financial burden of maintaining a LEO station,\" he said.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Axiom Space, a Houston-based powerhouse, is on a formidable quest: to revolutionize the off-Earth economy and take it soaring to unprecedented levels.\n\nEstablished in 2016, the company harbors an audacious dream, to erect its private abode in low Earth orbit (LEO). With the first foundational stone expected to be laid in the forthcoming years, Axiom's blueprint of the future features an intriguing alliance with SpaceX. Multiple tourist missions to the International Space Station (ISS) have been agreed upon, with the inaugural journey planned for launch in the closing days of February 2022.\n\nBut these individual projects, impressive as they are, merely form pieces of a grander tapestry. Axiom envisions an expanded human influence beyond the confines of our home planet, in the vast expanse of space.\n\n\"Axiom sees the future as a bustling habitat in the cosmos, fostering breakthroughs and perspectives that advance every person on every corner of the Earth. We're the gatekeepers to low Earth orbit, offering its keys to pioneers, governments, and individuals alike,\" claims the company on their website.\n\nA plethora of esteemed aerospace experts are the architects behind this vision. Among them is Axiom's co-founder, president, and CEO, Mike Suffredini, a seasoned veteran who directed NASA’s ISS program from 2005 to 2015. Another visionary at the helm is co-founder and executive chairman Kam Ghaffarian, who is also known for co-establishing Stinger Ghaffarian Technologies. This contractor is renowned for training NASA astronauts and other personnel involved in the ISS program.\n\nAdding to the stellar lineup are names such as Charlie Bolden, Michael López-Alegría, and Peggy Whitson. Bolden, a former space shuttle commander who spearheaded NASA from 2009 to 2017, serves as a business development consultant. López-Alegría and Whitson, both ex-NASA astronauts, contribute to the venture as the vice president of business development and astronaut consultant, respectively.\n\nTheir blueprint for establishing the commercial space station is methodical. Axiom plans to launch numerous modules to the ISS, eventually having this private infrastructure break free and establish an independent outpost.\n\nThe maiden module is penciled in for a September 2024 lift-off. Three more modules are projected to follow by the close of 2027, conditional on everything going according to the master plan.\n\n\"With the fourth module joining its siblings, Axiom Station will gain the autonomy to part ways from the ISS, metamorphosing into an upgraded, next-gen space station with enhanced crew accommodations, augmented payload capacity, and a devoted manufacturing and research lab module,\" Axiom's chief technology officer Matt Ondler explained to Space.com.\n\nHe anticipates a smooth transition as the timeline coincides with the current planned termination of ISS operations. The goal is to ensure an uninterrupted human presence in LEO.\n\nWhile the ISS is currently green-lit to function until 2024, many anticipate its lifespan to be extended to 2030. President Joe Biden has pledged his support for this extension, though it requires the agreement of other ISS partners such as the European Space Agency, the Canadian Space Agency, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, and Russia's Roscosmos.\n\nAxiom Station and other commercial stations in LEO could unlock fresh prospects for microgravity research, product development, tourism, and manufacturing, among other activities, according to Ondler.\n\n\"A commercial space station could be a boon for organizations like NASA, allowing them to pursue fundamental space science research and train astronauts for extended lunar missions and Martian journeys without the financial onus of maintaining a LEO station,\" he remarked.", "role": "assistant" } ]

", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Sure! \nHere are four ways that you can make eggs more fulfilling for breakfast without scrambling them! \n\n1. Add a “sunny side up” egg to a bowl of grits. \n\nWhen you have a heaping helping of grits in the mornings, put an over-easy egg on top. Then break the yolk and mix it around until bits of runny yolk and cooked egg whites are dispersed throughout the grits. The richness of the egg yolks combined with the buttery goodness of the grits will give your tastebuds an oomph of flavor and satisfying texture. \n\nAdditionally, grits are rich in iron while eggs are dense with protein and good fats. It’s a nutritious, tasty breakfast all around! \n\n2. Deviled eggs are quick, yummy on-the-go foods. \n\nTo make deviled eggs, you boil whole eggs, peel them, and cut them in half, then scoop out the semi-solid yolks. Mix the yolks with mayonnaise, salt, pepper, sweet pickle relish, and a hint of yellow mustard. Then spoon the yolk mixture back into the center of each egg half. Sprinkle with paprika and voila – a delicious, nutritious, more flavorful way to eat eggs!\n\n3. Poach an egg and put it over an English muffin with hollandaise sauce. \n\nThis method of eating eggs is called Eggs Benedict and it’s a savory way to enjoy a hearty breakfast. \n\nUsing water and a tablespoon of vinegar, crack an egg into the liquid and allow it to boil for 3 minutes, then scoop the egg out of the water with a slotted spoon. You can then place it on top of a toasted half of an English muffin with a spoonful of hollandaise sauce. To increase the flavor, you could also add smoked salmon between the egg and muffin before you spoon on the sauce. \n\n4. Toast, avocado, and eggs – simple, easy, and delicious. \n\nSometimes the best, most fulfilling breakfast is the simplest and easiest to prepare. Toast a couple of slices of bread to your liking and add sliced avocado on top. Then add an over-easy egg over your avocado. To spice things up, you could use a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning on top of your eggs. Enjoy! \n\nSide note: Make sure you have a napkin handy since this play on eggs and toast can get a little messy when the egg yolks burst. \n", "role": "assistant" } ]

[ { "content": "Turn the facts in this paragraph into a series of questions with answers\n\nParticle accelerators are devices that speed up the particles that make up all matter in the universe and collide them together or into a target. This allows scientists to study those particles and the forces that shape them. Specifically, particle accelerators speed up charged particles. These are particles with a positive or negative electrical charge such as protons, atomic nuclei, and the electrons that orbit atomic nuclei. In some cases, these particles reach speeds close to the speed of light. When the particles then collide with targets or other particles, the collisions that result can release energy, produce nuclear reactions, scatter particles, and produce other particles, such as neutrons. This gives scientists a look at what holds atoms, atomic nuclei, and nucleons together, as well as the world of particles like the Higgs boson. These particles and forces are the subject of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Scientists also get insights into the quantum physics that govern how the world behaves at incredibly small scales. In the quantum realm, the classical Newtonian physics that we live with every day is insufficient to explain particle interactions.\n\nHow do these machines accelerate particles? They inject particles into a “beamline.” This is a pipe held at very low air pressure in order to keep the environment free of air and dust that might disturb the particles as they travel though the accelerator. The particles injected into an accelerator are referred to as a “beam.” A series of electromagnets steers and focuses the beam of particles. In a linear accelerator or LINAC (pronounced line-ack or lin-ack), the particles shoot straight toward a fixed target. In a circular accelerator, the particles travel around a ring, constantly gaining speed. Circular accelerators can speed particles up in less overall space than a LINAC, but they tend to be more complex to build and operate. However, because the particles travel in a circle, circular accelerators create many more opportunities for particles to collide. Particles collide into each other or a target in a device called a particle detector. This device measures the particles’ speed, mass, and charge. This information allows scientists to determine what types of particles result from a collision.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Q: What are particle accelerators?\nA: Particle accelerators are devices that speed up the particles that make up matter in the universe and collide them together or with a target for scientific study.\n\nQ: Which types of particles do particle accelerators accelerate?\nA: Particle accelerators specifically accelerate charged particles, which include protons, atomic nuclei, and electrons.\n\nQ: Why do scientists use particle accelerators?\nA: Scientists use particle accelerators to study particles and the forces that shape them, gain insights into the Standard Model of Particle Physics, explore the world of particles like the Higgs boson, and understand quantum physics at small scales.\n\nQ: How do particle accelerators accelerate particles?\nA: Particle accelerators inject particles into a low-pressure pipe called a \"beamline\" to minimize disturbances. Electromagnets then steer and focus the particle beam. In linear accelerators (LINAC), particles shoot straight toward a fixed target, while in circular accelerators, particles travel around a ring, constantly gaining speed.\n\nQ: What are the advantages of circular accelerators over linear accelerators?\nA: Circular accelerators can achieve higher speeds in less space compared to linear accelerators. Additionally, circular accelerators provide more opportunities for particle collisions.\n\nQ: What is a particle detector?\nA: A particle detector is a device used in particle accelerators to measure the speed, mass, and charge of particles resulting from collisions.

At this time, prospectors were hunting for gold as the California Gold Rush was in full swing. It was said that the first person to perfect a metal detector could become very rich. \n\nThe first metal detector mentioned in history, though, was used in an attempt to save President James Garfield after he was shot in Washington, D.C. on July 2, 1881. Alexander Graham Bell is credited for making the first viable metal detector, which went on to be the prototype for many other metal detectors in the future. These machines were initially big, clunky, complex, and ran on vacuum tubes. However, they were useful and gradually became more popular throughout the 1900s. Gerhard Fisher, the founder of Fisher Metal Detectors, discovered that the radio beams he was using were being distorted every time an ore-bearing rock was present in the area. In 1925 Fisher was granted the patent on the first portable metal detector, which would be first sold to the public in 1931.

[ { "content": "Take this article and make it into a brief series of questions and answers. Don't use a bullet point list.\n\nScoliosis\nWhat is Scoliosis?\nEveryone's spine has subtle natural curves. But some people have different curves, side-to-side spinal curves that also twist the spine. This condition is called \"scoliosis\". On an x-ray with a front or rear view of the body, the spine of a person with scoliosis looks more like an \"S\" or a \"C\" than a straight line. These curves can make a person's shoulders or waist appear uneven. These curves can't be corrected simply by learning to stand up straight. You can't cause scoliosis; it does not come from carrying heavy backpacks, participating vigorously in sports, or poor posture.\n\nTypes of Adult Scoliosis\nIn addition to the two types of adult scoliosis discussed in this section—Adult Idiopathic Scoliosis and Adult Degenerative Scoliosis—types of scoliosis that develops early in life or that results from a separate syndrome also effect adults.\n\nAdult Idiopathic Scoliosis\nAdult idiopathic scoliosis is, in essence, a continuation of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Sometimes a spine curvature of an idiopathic (cause not known) nature that began during teenage years may progress during adult life. Curves may increase in size 0.5° to 2° per year. Adolescent curves less than 30° are unlikely to progress significantly into adulthood, while those over 50° are likely to get bigger, which is why adult scoliosis specialists should monitor the curves over time.\n\nLocations\nOccurs in the thoracic (upper) and lumbar (lower) spine, with the same basic appearance as that in teenagers, such as shoulder asymmetry, a rib hump, or a prominence of the lower back on the side of the curvature. Curves can worsen in the older patient due to disc degeneration and/or sagittal imbalance. Additionally, arthritis commonly affects joints of the spine and leads to the formation of bone spurs.\n\nSymptoms\nAdults with idiopathic scoliosis have more symptoms than teens because of degeneration in discs and joints leading to narrowing of the openings for the spinal sac and nerves (spinal stenosis). Some patients may lean forward to try and open up space for their nerves. Others may lean forward because of loss of their natural curve (lordosis, sway back) in their lumbar spine (low back). The imbalance causes the patients to compensate by bending their hips and knees to try and maintain an upright posture. Adult patients may have a variety of symptoms, which can lead to gradual loss of function:\n\nLow back pain and stiffness are the 2 most common symptoms\nNumbness, cramping, and shooting pain in the legs due to pinched nerves\nFatigue results from strain on the muscles of the lower back and legs\nImaging Evaluation\nScoliosis defined with radiographs that can include the following:\n\nStanding x-ray of the entire spine looking both from the back as well as from the side so your physician can measure the radiographs to determine curve magnitude, measured in degrees using the Cobb method.\nMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study of the spine is rarely used for patients experiencing minimal symptoms with adult idiopathic scoliosis. An MRI is usually ordered if you have leg pain, your physician finds some subtle neurologic abnormalities on physical examination, or if you have significant pain or an \"atypical\" curve pattern.\n\nTreatment Options\nNonoperative treatment\nThe majority of adults with idiopathic scoliosis do not have disabling symptoms and can be managed with simple measures including the following:\n\nPeriodic observation\nOver-the-counter pain relievers\nExercises aimed at strengthening the core muscles of the abdomen and back and improving flexibility\nBraces, in short-term use for pain relief (long-term use in adults is discouraged because braces can weaken the core muscles)\nEpidurals or nerve block injections for temporary relief if the patient has persistent leg pain and other symptoms due to arthritis and pinched nerves. Patients should track their response to the various injections to help define their pain generators.\nStronger pain medications can also be habit-forming and must be used with caution. If narcotics are needed to control the pain, see a scoliosis surgeon to learn more about the possible causes of pain.\n\nOperative treatment\nSurgical treatment is reserved for patients who have:\n\nFailed all reasonable conservative (non-operative) measures.\nDisabling back and/or leg pain and spinal imbalance.\nSeverely restricted functional activities and substantially reduced overall quality of life.\nThe goals of surgery are to restore spinal balance and reduce pain and discomfort by relieving nerve pressure (decompression) and maintaining corrected alignment by fusing and stabilizing the spinal segments. When patients are carefully chosen and mentally well-prepared for surgery, excellent functional outcomes can be achieved which can provide positive life-changing experience for a given individual patient. When larger surgeries—those greater than 8 hours—are necessary, surgery may be divided into 2 surgeries 5 to 7 days apart. Surgical procedures include:\n\nMicrodecompression relieves pressure on the nerves; A small incision is made and magnification loupes or a microscopic assists the surgeon in guiding tools to the operation site. This type of procedure is typically used only at one vertebra level, and carries a risk of causing the curve to worsen, especially in larger curves >30 degrees.\nSurgical stabilization involves anchoring hooks, wires or screws to the spinal segments and using metal rods to link the anchors together. They stabilize the spine and allow the spine to fuse in the corrected position.\nFusion uses the patient's own bone or using cadaver or synthetic bone substitutes to \"fix\" the spine into a straighter position\nOsteotomy is a procedure in which spinal segments are cut and realigned\nVertebral column resection removes entire vertebral sections prior to realigning the spine and is used when an osteotomy and other operative measures cannot correct the scoliosis.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "What is scoliosis? Subtle curves in the spine are normal. When different curves are present, like side-to-side curves which also twist the spine, this is the condition called Scoliosis.\n\nWhat are the types of adult scoliosis? Adult Idiopathic Scoliosis and Adult Degenerative Scoliosis. The latter develops later in life and the first one usually early in life. These are two different syndromes of scoliosis.\n\nWhere are the locations of scoliosis? Scoliosis occurs in several locations. Those include the thoracic, upper spine, lumbar, and lower spine. They appear as shoulder asymmetry, a rib hump, or a prominence where the lower back is located in front of the curvature. \n\nWhat causes curves to worsen in older patients? Disc degeneration and/or sagittal imbalance, arthritis which affects joints of the spine. This leads to the formation of bone spurs.\n\nWhat are the symptoms of adult idiopathic scoliosis? Adults have more symptoms than teens because of the degeneration of discs and joints. Because of this, there is a narrowing of the openings for the spinal sac and nerves which is called spinal stenosis. To alleviate this some patients may lean forward in an attempt to open up space for their nerves. Or they man lean forward because of loss of the natural curve in their lumbar spine which is the lower back. As a result of this imbalance, patients compensate by bending their hips and knees trying to hold an upright position. These symptoms can lead to gradual loss of function. Lower back pain. Lower back stiffness. Numbness, shooting pain in the legs, and or cramping. As a result of fatigue, because of the strain on the muscles of the lower back and legs.\n\nWhat sort of imaging evaluation is used? A standing X-ray looks at the entire spine from the back and side. This allows the physician to determine the curve magnitude using the Cobb method. Another type of imaging is an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). This is rarely used unless the patient has more than minimal symptoms of idiopathic scoliosis. If the patient is having leg pain or subtle neurologic abnormalities noticed during physical examination or if the patient is complaining of significant pain or has an atypical curve pattern.\n\nWhat are the nonoperative treatment options? Periodic observation, over-the-counter pain relievers, exercises to strengthen the core muscles of the back and abdomen as well as stretching for flexibility. Braces are another option but only for short-term pain relief. Long-term usage is not recommended because it weakens the muscles. Epidurals or nerve block injections for temporary relief of leg pain and other symptoms of pinched nerves or arthritis. Narcotics are addicting and should only be used after seeing a scoliosis surgeon to pinpoint the possible causes of the pain.\n\nWhat are the operative treatments? Operative treatments are only recommended for patients who have not seen improvement using nonoperative treatments or have disabling back or leg pain and spinal imbalance. Another reason would be a greatly reduced overall quality of life. Here are the procedures, Microdecompression, Surgical Stabilization, Fusion, Osteotomy, and Vertebral column resection.\n", "role": "assistant" } ]
