Hi,
I am 18 years old and from England. Three years ago I was diagnosed with Scheuermann's disease. I had to have yearly visits to my specialist and he said that my curvature wasn't bad enough to warrant surgery and that it's now matured and won't curve anymore. I still got a lot of frequent pain from it but he said the pain is expected and I will just have to put up with it. However, due to Scheuermann's I also have a chest that curves outwards and not like normal male's chests. These two things have made me very insecure, paranoid and totally destroyed my self-esteem. I have sometimes considered suicide. I was thinking if I could have some more info about Scheuermann's surgery and if they do surgery on the chest as well? I get pain and numbness from my back a lot but no pain in the chest area. Thank you for your time.
