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... i'm from philippines also... i was diagnosed with Thoracic dextroscoliosis, Lumbar levoscoliosis, and Predisposition to lumbosacral instability..... it says that a 22 degree rightward curvature involving T5 to T12 and a 14 degree leftward curvature involving L1 to L4 are seen. The vertical line of weight bearing falls anterior to the sacral promontory with a lumbosacral angle of 32 degrees... i always have back pains.... drinking milk is not enough,... last year its just "spinal asymmetry".....
I often feel pain when I am exhausted on my upper back area, I'm 23 years old and I got my Xray when I was 16 years old, it's been said i have dextroscoliosis thoracic spine. Do I have to worry? Thank you and best regards!
lets just pray na lang

mahal treatment at medication
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. 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.
