Our orthopedic doctor has diagnosed our daughter with scoliosis.
We don't know th degree of curvature yet as she has been referred to an orthopedic surgeon and we see him next month.
She doesn't complain of any pain or discomfort. She seems to be a normal 7 year old....very active, involved in sports, etc.
She was born with bilateral hip displaysia....dislocation of the hips.
Wore body casts and hip reduction surgery on one hip before she turned one. Now everything is okay with that but about a month ago we noticed her back looked abnormal and at her annual checkup on her hips we asked the doctor about it. That's when we found out. But he said he didn't think there was any relation.
I don't know what to do between now and her appt. but the unknown is killing me and her mother. Just thought I'd write.
