Hi,
My niece is almost 18. Six years ago she was diagnosed with thoracolumbar double curve idiopathic scoliosis. She was suggested a Milwaukee brace and she wore it for two years. After this period the doctor said that she did not need it anymore and she hasn't done anything since. She feels just fine and her angles remain at 29 and 25 degrees.
She wants to be a dentist but we are worried that this profession might not be suitable to her condition.
Does anyone know about a relationship between the profession and spinal problems? What would you suggest?
Thank you in advance for any help,
