Hello,
I do not post here too regularly because I find reading some of the things makes me particularly nervous about the surgery I am likely to have.
I am aware that all backs and spines are different but I was hoping that some of you could tell me what your, or your childrens backs looked like before and after their surgery.
I did kind of ask my surgeon but his answer really referred to what happens with the bone and didn't really give me an idea of what the cosmetic effects will be.
If it helps my spine has a thoracic curve I think,[The middle section I think, but definitely not lumber. It is an S shape, and can also be classified as 3C.
I have a very prominent rib hump on the right side of my back, and then a very shallow side of my back opposite. On my front side there is a rib hump but its not that prominent. Because of the curve my upper body is a little bit smaller proportionally to that of my lower body.
I do know that all cases are different but it would be helpful for me to know what has happened in other situations and to what extent can surgery fix these things?
