I have scoliosis and have a problem for the last 3 months to do with sciatica. I don't know about the cream but I am sure you would get more relief from an anti-inflammatory medication. I am also using a cool-pack 5 times a day. Sorry you are in so much pain.

It wasn't bad enough to have any treatment but I am now coming up for 56 years old and have been having problems with my back since I was 40. I have a curve to the right at the top of my back and at the bottom a curve to the left. I am lopsided and I tend to stoop forward.

What is your age and have you had anything done?

I am so sorry to hear that you have heart and chest wall problems due to the scoliosis. I would have thought that they would have done something for you if it's that bad. Did they offer you any kind of surgery or a back brace? May I ask what is wrong with your heart?

I stopped having x-rays around 18 as they said that we a fully grown by that age and that it wouldn't get any worse.
