Examination: Normally scoliosis is not a painful condition. It would help to know your age range. For the adolescent and adult whose curve has stabilized, if you are having pain you should see your spinal surgeon for andcevalustiom. Trearment may be as simple as exercising and bracing. There may be other conditions that may be contributing to your pain. Surgery may be required. Examination should be performed.

Start with exercise: Scoliosis is usually a painfree condition if it is the type you have had since your childhood . Over time, there are degenerative changes in the spine that may be accelerated by abnormal spinal mechanics if the curve is large & it involves the lower back, especially. Begin with exercising, lose weight if overweight and stop smoking if you have this habit. If this doen't help see a specialist.
