See answer: Dextroscoliosis indicates a curvature of the spine (in your case mild and towards the right – “dextro”). This usually is a developmental variant, and not of clinical significance. As your dr. If you have continued concern but it should not be something to worry about.

Stable curve: Mild scoliosis is usually less than 10 degrees. Scoliosis usually progresses with rapid growth of individual. i presume that you have obtained final height and progress of curve will not occur.I assume that this was incidental finding and you are not having symptoms referable to back.
