A member asked:
Recently i discovered i have scoliosis. i am wondering is 6 degree and 8 degree scoliosis is bad and do i need some kind of treatment for it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO. It is barely enough to mention. At a posted age of 19/male you are skeletally mature & the chance of this increasing is minimal. It should have no direct effect on your health or daily life.
