A member asked:
Can you touch your toes with scoliosis?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Depends: Scoliosis alone should not necessarily keep you from touching your toes. Though it depends on the severity. Some people just can't touch their toes, they don't have the flexibility.

Varies: The flexibility of the spine varies tremendously from patients with vary flexible curves with essentially normal range of motion to curvatures which are quite rigid and stiff. Thank you for the question.
