A member asked:

68 year-old female just told i have dextrose convex scoliosis. what can be done about it?? this the first time i have ever been told this

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Many people will develop a mild degree of scoliosis in their lifetime. The most common period is during the rapid growth years. Sometimes it is a transient finding in people with short term back pain. When growth stops, and the degree of curve does not interfere with breathing or the circulation, not much is considered necessary. When it's bad they can stick steel rods down the sides of the spine
