A member asked:
Mild thoracic scoliosis noted on back xray. what is the clinical sugnificance of this in a 42 year old female?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Probably not much. Mild scoliosis is fairly common and it may cause some discomfort especially if there are secondary osteoarthritic changes. Often it produces no symptoms.
