Does anyone else have this pain? My daughter has a 51* curve and will have surgery, but the pain appeared at 43* and nothing helps it. And believe me she has done yoga pilates massage physio acupuncture Tylenol Ibuprofen psychologist/painmanagement...She has always been very active and in excellent excellent shape. She can't sleep at night, and even resting and taking it easy does not take away the pain. I gather this is fairly unusual for this size curve. I would like to hear from others who have experienced this.
The physio thinks maybe her scapula is rubbing on the ribs. The scapula juts out a fair amount. When we compared backs with her friend who has 61* upper and no pain, we found that Leah's scapula was much more prominent. I am hoping that surgery will re align the scapula so that her muscles will not be so strained.
