Depending on how flexible you are, there's a good chance that you'll regain some height!. You may not regain "all" height, though!. There's a chance that your spinal cord will be pinched if it is completely straightened!.
What does "4th degree scoliosis" mean!? I'm used to curves being described by their "Cobb angle"!. For example, I had a 60-degree curve before my surgery!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi,
If your curve is severe, and you need surgery, you will definitely grow taller!. When I had my surgery I grew two inches, and that's how much most people grow!.
Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
