: If you have not suffered traumatic events, this would be unusual at your age of 27. Regardless of the cause, which should be uncovered, a successful widespread surgical solution would likely not be feasible. Far preferable would be the use of physical therapy and exercise. See a physiatrist to initiate a rehabilitation program.
