A member asked:
Is there a tendency that a mild levoscoliosis becomes worse as time goes by?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your spine is nearly mature at age 23-29 (late) so it is fixed until you get old enough to develop osteoarthritis. At that point, your back could be worse than gals the same age- but not much ,if any.
