Hello, I am Daniel and I am new here. To be honest I only joined really because I wanted to know the answer to some questions and I can't find them any where really.
I am 17 years old and I have one curve that is around 60 - 70 degrees.
I was wondering about some of the cosmetic effects that happen after surgery, because I am trying to weigh up some of the positives and negatives of surgery.
So if anyone could help answer these questions I would be very grateful :
1. One one side of my back it is very flat and it is as if there is no muscle there, and on the other side their is a big hump. I was wondering whether surgery would reduce this hump and whether I might be able to get muscle over time on the other time, and make it look even or normal, because at the moment it doesnt look very good at all.
2. Will I end up a bit taller?
3. My upper body is a bit small compared to my lower body at the moment, will this change?
4. Will the rib hump that comes forward on my front not be there after surgery?
5. Does surgery leave long lasting scars?
6. Does surgery generally cause long term pain?
7. How much mobility am I likely to have? More or loss in my upper body? I love playing golf, will this be effected?
I would be very grateful if people could help me with this, Im not fully sure about the details of the surgery, but I think it will be a pretty normal procedure.
