Answers:
If you can, get a referral to a scoliosis specialist who will examine your back!. The specialist should be able to tell you whether you have functional scoliosis (an effect of something else, like uneven legs) or structural scoliosis (idiopathic, or unknown cause, is the most common type), and how many degrees that your curve measures!.

If it is functional, you may get a heel insert and perhaps a back support, but I'll defer to your specialist!. If you do see him, please let me know what he said!.

I don't have alot of experience with functional scoliosis!. Please email me if it turns out that you have structural (idiopathic) scoliosis and I can post more info!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
