Hi docs, do you think it's bad that my spine is curved?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Everybody's spine is curved a little. However is the curve is a lot and is causing pain due to pinching of nerves in the spine then it may need to be looked at. Sometimes the curve can be helped with exercise therapies, other times injections may need to be used to improve pain. Each person's plan is slight different, would recommend seeing a pain and spine specialist.
