HI!!

Okay, Scoliosis pain is “real”, meaning if we don’t fix the bone issues and nerve entrapment, then the pain will persist. Thus, first see your doctors about the pain issues and see if they can maximize their efforts first. Otherwise, you might need to recourse to mindfulness and meditation and other medications to help cope emotionally. Also, get yourself active with a young church group, and other activities, that may help as well.
Hope that helps.
