So I went back to the chiro today. The doc came in with my x-rays and we found out that I have mild scoliosis. My spine is bent to the right a bit. It wasn't caused by the accident though. I know it runs in my mom's family.

Oh wells :happysad:

 

Sucks...what can scholiosis do? any treatment? Does it hurt? Hope all gets well. Anything to do with the back and spinal cord is bad news.

 

Different parts of the spine affect different parts of your body, so some crap may happen depending on what part of my spine is misaligned. It doesn't hurt...yet. My mom has scoliosis too, but I can't really tell. Her doctor tells her to stretch her back every day, which I've been doing for the past few years already, so it's probably not so bad in my case.

 

welcome to the scoliosis crew :af:

i have a slight case. found out when i got xrays when i possibly chipped a backbone.

 

Sorry to hear Dom. I was scared of having that when I was a kid.

 

ive had it since i was 8. My hips are uneven, my spine is bent and my neck doesnt have as much of a cervical curve as it should. My chiro is my God.

My ex had an extreme case of it and since he's been going to my chiro, it has improved greatly and he's gained 2 inches in heighth.

Keep up the chiropractic care, Dom. You'll thank yourself down the line.

 

I've never been to a chiro, and I can't imagine what's wrong with my body after all the abuse i've put it through.

 

Something as small as a sneeze can subluxate your spine (through it out of alignment). Even if you don't notice anything wrong, there probably is something that will show up years down the road. If you go to a chiro regularly, you'll notice a hell of an improvement in teh way you feel.

Of course you have to find a good one who works with you and isn't all about the money therefore he only spends 4 seconds on you.

 

i pop my back all day and my neck always hurts, i have never been to a chiro but i am sure that i am all fucked up

 

You shouldnt "pop" or "crack" your joints on your own.
