Question: Curved spine and back pain?

(Posted by: on 2012-01-24 22:22:04)

Hi, I am 20. Recently I noticed that I have a curve in my spine. I haven't been to the doctor for it yet so have no idea what measure of degree it has. It curves to the right between my shoulder blades, and the right side of my back/ ribcage is a lot bigger than the left side.. Anyway, for quite a while now I've been having bad pain on the right side of my upper back. I also occasionally get sharp pains in my ribs. I was wondering if anyone here knows how I can reduce my back pain? I've been taking Aspirin but that doesn't really help much at all.. Thanks!

Sounds like you have scoliosis. It's best to get it checked by a doctor so they can further advise you on treatment. Typically you're given a brace to help keep your spine straight. Once your spine is straight it should ease the pain you're feeling.
