Been having low back pain 3 years. chest x-ray showed dextroscoliosis low thaoracic. didn't have this before. i'm 24. what could cause this?

New scoliosis?: If you are sure you never had scoliosis before, get to a back doctor and get an MRI done. New scoliosis means some inflammation locally in the spine.
