I am new to this site adn I hope I can get some answers or at least be able to talk to people with the same problem.
I am 36 years old and was diagnosed with scoliosis at the age of 15. I was told it was a mild form and not to worry it wouldnt cause me any problems. I did have pain in my back off and on until I was about 23. I had been painfree until about 3 weeks ago. I started college again and Im a surgical tech. I am on my feet for 9 hours. The pain that I have is located in the upper right section of my back. That is also the section that is larger than the other half. I also have pain in my ribs. at times it feels like they are breaking. Other times, it just feels like a huge cramp. I have noticed a lunp on ribs. I began to notice that about 4 months agao. The only cure I have to relieve the pain is to lie down. I have noticed that wearing a bra seems to make the pain worse. That sounds funny doesnt it. i have also noticed that Im starting to have what feels like a pinched nerve in my neck that runs down my back. I usually have my scoliosis checked every 5 years to look for progression but it has been 10 years this time around. My biggest fear is that they will find that there is something more that is wrong with me than just my scoliosis. Im looking for answers and if anyone has experienced the same problems, i would love to hear from you. Nobody here seems to understand.
