halos parehas kami ni CuriosityGotMe, Ang Worst nung bumalik ako dito sa Saudi after treatment ay nakaramdam ako ng pinakamasakit na Backpain sa buong buhay ko di ako makatindig sa pagkakaupo ko at kahit maglakad ang hirap parang may sumipa na todo sa pinakalikod ko.

nagpacheck ako dito sa KIM hospital at binigyan ako ng gamot na RELAXON na inumin for 10 days di po ako gumaling then lipat ako ng Almana same din gamot lang at sinamahan ng Gel pampahid sa likod.

Ang nagpagaling sa akin ay hilot lang then iwas sa pagkain na mataas sa uric since nakita ko ito nung pa check up din ako ng dugo.

Sa ngayon tuloy pa rin ang pagmamasage ko sa isang Physical therapist dito with mild exercise po na tinuro sa akin dati sa Ospital. sa gabi bago matulog at sa umaga after maligo naglalagay ako ng Efficascent Oil. Samahan ninyo po ng Zumba. pero kung medyo masakit pa likod mo huag muna.matulog po kayo ng nakatagilid pakaliwa since DEXTRO ay kanan. sana pansamantalang makatulong ito..Now medyo ok aking pakiramdam >>

hello maui i have also Mild dextroscoliosis avoid food that produce Uric acid,  I was attended by a physical therapist who has given me 'electro' something and hot compress for about 20mins. to relieve my back pain. After such procedure the PT also taught me of the basic exercises and stretching. For me even you were diagnosed with a mild dextroscoliosis only it is really helpful to consult a professional PT. It's the first move we have to do for us to become aware of the do's and dont's. My doctor said nothing to worry about it especially when you're in the age when you stop growing but it is important too to apply a proper remedy for this kind of illness as this may affect our ribcage and the intact of our internal organs. I was diagnosed just last June 2012 and I immediately visited a physician to help myself regarding this illness and I believe seeing a doctor applies to all same comment above.

I am 52 years old and was diagnosed with thoracic dextroscoliosis at my age now when I received my diagnostic xray result from St. Lukes.  I work as a teacher in a university and currently on rehab. leave due to papillary carcinoma affecting my thyroid gland.  I am due for operation that's why I had this xray. I remain very positive despite of my situation because I always rely on the Lord for everything in life. Most of you are young and have a good life ahead of you.  The reason why I still standing and living in faith is because of my two daughters, still growing up and my grand kids. Please don't lose hope, put your faith in the hands of God.  I always pray and recite the Psalms 23 and 91.

hi, to those with scoliosis, it is best to consult a Orthopedian, then they'll refer you to a Physical Therapist or Occupational Therapist. You will be given medication and therapy sessions which could help. My sister is currently undergoing therapy sessions and she feels relieved.

I have the same problem too. I recently have visited 'Pain and Rehab' clinic at the 5th Floor in Megamall and I became aware of what dextroscoliosis is. I was attended by a physical therapist who has given me 'electro' something and hot compress for about 20mins. to relieve my back pain. After such procedure the PT also taught me of the basic exercises and stretching. For me even you were diagnosed with a mild dextroscoliosis only it is really helpful to consult a professional PT.
