Need evaluation: Scoliosis leads to degenerative arthritic changes in the affected part of the spine. Sometimes, surgical correction and bracing is required. In any case, you need an evaluation by an orthopedist or neurosurgeon who can assess the problem. This is a common problem, so help is available at most medical centers.

Unusual to hurt: Mild thoracic scoliosis rarely causes symptoms and is very common because you"re having pain, i would see your doctor or possibly an orthopedist( bone doctor) for further evaluation
