Hello and welcome to Connect. I did make that comment in 2021 to another member on Connect and have been a Mentor on Connect for several years. I myself, do not have scoliosis, but I do my best to help other patients understand spine issues. I am a cervical spine surgery patient and had a fusion at C5/C6 because of a herniated disc and spinal cord compression. I did research a lot in my time before surgery, and my neurosurgeon at Mayo Rochester is a deformity specialist who does complex scoliosis cases. I have looked up a lot of medical literature on reliable sources such as NIH (National Institutes of Health) and you can search for more scientific information on Google Scholar. I was in my 50's at the time of my surgery although it was caused by a whiplash about 20 years earlier with spinal degeneration with aging after an injury.

Here is my surgeon's profile and a video where he is discussing adult scoliosis treatment.
