Son (21, athetoid) just been referred to spinal unit due to fairly rapidly developing scoliosis (and apparent "misalignment" of 2 vertebrae). Probably been gradually worsening over last few years but very noticeable on Xray ...which was actually first spinal one, though hips been done for years. Anyone got any experience of this and what they might do? Thanks

Hi @forgoodnesssake
I have found some information for you, as I have no experience of Scoliosis myself other than non-disabled friends undergoing treatment. Though I'm sure you will have probably read up on everything already.
