Hi Norabelle, you are very young. the appropriate physical therapies will help you. :
Pete egoscue techniques/ go to the nearest postural alignement specialist.
for self help :
treat your own neck Robin Mc Kensies
and yogo for scoliosis elise browning miller
I am 50 years old and I have scoliosis too but have being treating it for the last 3 weeks with yoga for scoliosis, and feel much better. and for 10 years I was pain free with egoscue. so at 23 years old, you have a lot of natural option.
cheers virginie

I am 23 years old and I have a low grade scoliosis curve thats been present since childhood, I haven't been diagnosed with kyphosis officially but my back has a severe c shaped curve and in the past two years i have developed a significant hump on the top of my neck (much like a woman in her 70s would have), I have always had back pain since i was little but in the past two years it has gotten out of hand. I was told today that a few of my vertebrae in the middle of my back either have bone spurs or early arthritis degeneration, when i received an epidural for childbirth about 5 months back they (unknowingly) placed it right in the area where my vertebrae are starting to degenerate and since i have had severe pain in that area that radiates through out my back and is tender to the touch, I have begun to get severe headaches and i am constantly achy and fatigued....

I was wondering does anyone have any of the issues (if so what kind of treatment options can i expect?), does anyone else my age have problems like this, and just generally what can i do about pain while i wait to have a million dr.s figure out all the issues
