skulliosis during pregnancy!?

Question

I am 26 and have had a crooked spine in my neck and lower back since I was in middle school. I am 22 weeks right now and have been having such HORRIBLE lower back pain. I'm usually quite tolerant as far as pain goes but my last few shifts at work were so bad I almost broke down in tears. I cut hair for a living so when it gets busy we can't really take breaks. Has anyone else had this problem and whathave  you done to help?!

Answer

I work the front desk in a chiropractic office. I would try chiropractic or physical therapy. Scoliosis can't be completely cured but the symptoms can be brought under control I think. I'm not a doctor but I would bring it up to your primary care physician and ask for a referral to someone who can help.

Answer

Scoliosis is definitely something you should have mentioned to your doctor because with spinal issues they have to be tailored to the individual

Answer

I have scoliosis and I'm seeing a private physio therapist throughout my pregnancy and I'm finding it is helping. Maybe you should also look into getting a pregnancy support belt that can support your lower back as well?  When I'm in work I always have a cushion with me so my lower back is well supported whilst sitting at a desk. I hope it eases for you !

Answer

I have scoliosis as well. Mine was so bad I had to  have surgery at the age of 15. It still hurts me every one in awhile but I know what you are going through... my mom has it and she stays up some nights crying from back & leg pain. Take some Tylenol and relax. Maybe a warm bath.
