I have Scoliosis

2017-11-06 02:04:28
Hello doc, I'm a 19 years old man. Recently I did an x-ray of my spinal chord and found that there was an curvature of the spine on the right side of 28.3° in C shape. Actually I don't have any pain or other things, I couldn't realize that I have Scoliosis. Few days ago, my mom put her hand on my back and got that the spine is not there where it should be. Then I went to an Orthopedic and he suggested to do an x-ray and the Scoliosis is found. So I am asking you if I should go through a surgery.

Surgery required when you have pain, stiffness or  any other symptoms, just go or basic back strengthening exercises so consult a qualified physiotherapist
