Just received news that i have mild scoliosis in my upper spine. it explains all the pain i've been having. is it anything to be concerned about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mild scoliosis: Scoliosis usually does not cause pain unless severe or some offset of the vertebrae.Adults who have scoliosis may or may not have back pain. In most cases where back pain is present, it is hard to know whether scoliosis is the cause.
