I Have Scoliosis

Worst part so far is when it hurts so bad that I cannot get up. I live alone and got no one to count on for help. Good thing it lasted for only a few days.

Eh, life.

try hanging and extending your spine to align it and then do some light back exercises to strengthen the muscles to hold your spine straight.

it works quite well for me as my back is straight again. :)

@xSharp it did? Whoaa. Yea, been doing exercises. What degree was your curve?

@Yoroshii my hip was out to the left and my left shoulder hung pretty low, my head was off to the right a little to compensate for balance.

when i walked i would wander off to the left and when i sat down my hips would face left

i think it was from 8 years of football coupled with the fact i cant drink milk.

chiropractor couldnt fix it for the long term so i did some research and learned a few things that could help, its a bit of a commitment thought.

im just glad i can feel my tail bone again 😊

Oh damn, that sounds painful. Imagine from that to straight back again. That some commitment right there :O happy for you!

@Yoroshii its a good kind of pain feeling your discs decompress and snap back into place after being out for so long and it kind of makes sense seeing as how we were apes swinging from trees for so long and not having to deal with our own weight. the weight of out own bodies can do damage to our spines if our backs are weak.
