I have chronic pain from adult onset scoliosis. I was diagnosed 2 years with a mild.l case. This year I am in pain in upper middle back almost every day. I scheduled an appointment with an orthopedic doctor next week. I'm afraid my scoliosis has gotten worse and I'll have to wear an orthopedic brace. God help me that I don't have surgery in my future.

I was hospitalized for lower back pain 2 years ago. It was excruciating. Robaxin was a godsend. I guess back issues will be in my life forever.

Maggie I don’t know whether you exercise or not but staying limber especially the spine if important with scoliosis. I’m having upper back issues currently too and receiving PT and do a home exercise program 2x day. It will save your back from surgery!
