Are you sure that the Wikipedia reference-linkscoliosis wasn't there first? It makes more sense IMHO to have a disc, that is squeezed unevenly, to bulge and eventually prolapse toward the convex side and that way impinge on the nerve root - create muscle weakness and the "normal" side then becomes effectively hypertonic and exaggerates the previously compensated scoliosis.
