Breat : Breat reduction is likely to help you to a significant degree. The full clinical picture has to be taken into consideration but decresing the loads to your back and improving your center of gravity will clearly help.

Maybe: Breast reduction can help upper back and neck pain that is made worse by heavy breasts. It may not affect your sclerosis at all. But physical therapy and exercise can support a arching back and and help the back pain. Good bone health is also i portent and a bone density reading may show signs of bone loss. Age 40 is jot to early to see this.
