A member asked:
How to confirm sideway slant of the spine? i suspect my spine is slanted to one side giving a tight feeling to one side of my body under the rib cage
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exam and X-rays : Some people have a degree of kyphoscoliosis which can make the spine appear to slant to one side. You health provider can determine if you have this condition. Many cases are mild and do not require any specific treatment.
