Not the physical exam.! I mean the company where I'm applying didn't accept me because of my scoliosis. The medical result that I passed to them is OK but they found out that I have mild scoliosis so they told me I'm not fit for the position that I was applying for. And if they are going to  hire me it might be worst for my back because it is a heavy work.There will be a limit for me looking for a job now.

Are you saying you failed a medical exam just because of scoliosis?  Because almost every human has mild scoliosis and don't even notice it.  Back pain could be caused by it, or it could be caused by whatever is causing the scoliosis.  More serious scoliosis can impinge on nerves and force the body to work harder with other areas of the body that will cause the back pain, such as making one leg have to take longer strides than the other.  Treatment varies depending on the cause and the severity and whether it's bothering you or not, which goes to whether it's the source of your back pain.  To find that out would require tests and range of motion tests.  Treatment for a mild problem would be to get you to, basically, learn to straighten your back more and strengthen the muscles that support the back.  This is usually done by physical therapists or similar professionals.  Severe cases can require a brace or surgery, but you say it's mild, so again, what has that got to do with a physical exam?
