Is the pain we experience with a curvature causing Inflammation? If so, would we be doing our spine more wrong by not taking something like Ibuprofen to take some of the Inflammation away?

Inflammation???
Before surgery my pain was from compressed spinal nerves; I did not have arthritis, tendonitis or bursitis.
Happily, I am totally pain free at age 64 3 1/2 years post-op. With the 50% correction the nerve pressure was relieved.Original scoliosis surgery 1956 T-4 to L-2 ~100 degree thoracic (triple)curves at age 14. NO hardware-lost correction.
Anterior/posterior revision T-4 to Sacrum in 2002, age 60, by Dr. Boachie-Adjei @Hospital for Special Surgery, NY = 50% correction
