Thread: is it serious if your school nurse tells you to go see a doctor during the...

...scoliosis checkup? i got a letter from the school nurse last year telling me to go see a doctor cuz i might have scoliosis. i just wanted to know how serious it is when the school nurse tells you to go see a doctor. does she recommend it even if it's less than 10 degrees?

also, does sitting on a desk too long affect your scoliosis? and what part of your back hurts and how?

yes don't be a hunchback- go see the dr

Scoliosis is actually very common. If you don't have any obvious abnormalities, there is nothing to worry about. Just go to the doctor.
Many females have it from carrying heavy purses on one shoulder (at least that's what I've heard).
