Case Summary  |  My Back Pain

I was very young when I was diagnosed with scoliosis. My father also has the condition, so he knew what I needed to do about it. Going to the chiropractor helped quite a bit. I feel as though the pain was worse back then. I can't afford the chiropractic therapy anymore. So now, I just exercise my back and watch what I am doing. There are certain things that hurt more than others. Things like standing at a hunched angle hurt more, for example. I think its important to know your limits. It helps quite a bit with treatment of the condition.

There is no real cure for this disorder, which is terrible. However, the stretching does help.
