Scoliosis is anatomi: Scoliosis is an anatomic deformity, reflecting the amount of curvature in the spine. It says nothing about SYMPTOMS. (This is the FALLACY of Radiologic diagnosis - just because you see something on X-ray, it doesn't mean that it is significant). Is your pain in the back? At what level? A careful neurologic diagnosis can help determine if this is related to the scoliosis or not, & how to treat it.

Find another label: Scoliosis is a label like a curved finger or short leg. Mild scoliosis is very common & often never known unless an incidental x-ray detects it.If you have back pain it will be from something else. Sometimes backpain originating in your muscles can cause you to appear to have mild scoliosis from muscle action. You need to see a back pain specialist & start over.
