Hello,
My daughter has scoliosis and hypokyphosis. Her doctor says that her hypokyphosis is "remarkable" - I am thinking that he means that it is pretty bad. She has been wearing a brace for over 4 years now. She started wearing a Boston-type brace and is now wears the LA brace. Her curves are now at T-33 and L-23 out-of-brace. She is also a ballet dancer; she has been dancing for 10 years now. I'm wondering if anyone can explain the hypokyphosis and how it relates to the scoliosis? Does it make the scoliosis worse? Does ballet make the scoliosis worse? Does ballet make the hypokyphosis worse? My daughter is 15 and has about 1-1/2 years left to grow.
Thanks!!
