A member asked:

Is it normal to have increased back pains when walking since pregnancy last year with scoliosis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Good question: Pregnancy relaxes your ligaments also the weight distribution through the spine is changed. So possible to have made things worse. Core strengthening, physical therapy should help. If it persists, bring it up with your primary care provider/spine specialist.
