Hello i have scoliosis, my bone degree is 32 degrees, in gym class, i have to do push ups . if i keep doing it will my bone degree go up or down?

Missing info: The tendency for scoliosis to increase or decrease is somewhat dependent on bone maturity in most patients. Those in a rapid growing period have more risk than those whose bones have stopped growing. A bone maturity (bone age) as well as any present treatment(s) would allow a more specific response.
