Slight Scoliosis & Neck Pain
Posted: 03-02-07 05:10am

A few years ago I did some muscle damage to my back so my doctor sent me for an x-ray. I was told to rest & do no sport for a month & my back recovered. I don't have much back pain anymore but the x-ray showed slight scoliosis to the left. Just wondering can this get worse over time?
I get constant neck pain (some days worse than others). I've had neck pain for some years now (im only 21) but you just learn to live with it. When I start to get headaches I go to the doctor to get my neck cracked. However, the last time I went to get it cracked it hurt just as much if not more and was getting headaches everyday at work. It's been just over a month since I had it cracked and it is only just coming good now.
Can the scoliosis be causing the neck pain?
Is there anything i can do for neck pain?

any help would be much appreciated.

You need to see your family doctor and possibily get a MRI done. Which can see better than a x-ray...... you need a proper diagnosis to know what to really do, as for now use ice and motrin or tylenol, take it easy and get into that doctor. good luck hope all goes well!!!
