Hello all-
I had corrective fusion surgery in the thorasic region of my spine in 1989 through the harrington rod procedure. I was 9 years old at the time and today I'm 26. I'm fit, but just recently have started a work out regime to get more toned muscular. Is there any risk with my scoliosis to working weights? Has anyone had any problems or tried this before and had good results?
Additionally, I wonder if there is any benefit to building up back and shoulder muscles with scoliosis. I have a rib hum and considered building the muscle on my left shoulder blade opposite the rib hump to see if there is any better cosmetic result. Any ideas?
Thanks-
Chris
