@agamericangirl1 lucky i have to get a fusion i have a almost sever case :-/ and i cant wear a brace cause my skin cant handle it and gets a rash

@blaziankhmer So you'll probably have some stiffness with bending, then. I'm glad you managed to get that sorted before it did terrible damage. I hope your fusion goes well with no problems. :)

@StrangeManBehindMe i have an "S" shape one top and bottom, i just got a tether cord surgery done about 4 weeks ago, because it was stretching my spine. thought i got rid of it 18 years ago, xrays just showed it was still there 3 months ago. so i needed to get it done before i get my fusion surgery or else it could snap my spine. well good luck to you, i hope all is well.

@blaziankhmer It kinda depends where your scoliosis is, I believe.

If you only have a curve at the top of your spine then a little while after the surgerey you should be able to bend/move fairly normally. If you have a curve at the bottom then your spine would be stiffer, making it harder to bend. I'm just guessing though because I haven't had my surgery yet. Hope this kinda helped. :)

i have sever scoliosis, it's been plaguing me for a long time. i am still active, i do still play sports, but i am prone to injuries. i have acquired a bad knee and chronic pain through out my body. i have a tether cord problem also. hopefully the corrective surgery would help, does anyone know if the titanium rods would limit my ability to move or lift?
