About this trial
Purpose of This study to detect if there is correlation between the Cobb's angle and the forward head posture in patients with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis.
And if there is correlation between the Cobb's angle and the cervical sagittal curve angle in AIS. And also if there is correlation between the Cobb's angle and deep flexors muscles endurance in AIS
