i have scoliosis too and lifting has made it way better

as long as it's not severe to the point where it requires surgery, you can lift. just listen to your body and go up in weight slowly, don't lift anywhere near your max until you gain experience

I have scoliosis too.
focus on proper posture, lift with the best form possible, srs aim for perfect form all the time, find what works for your body. get stronger.

over time i've noticed that there are certain areas in my back that tighten up over time and certain patterns apear. certain ways/muscles/directions/clusters that tense and tighten up to form knots. find a good massage therapist/myofacial release specialist to help with these issues.

in terms of curing, it's very difficult but there is something called the "schroth method" that was developed in the late 1800's/early 1900's that has some really solid evidence behind it but there aren't many practitioners. try and find one, go to them regularly if you can, they can straighten your curve out a lot

Maybe if the radiographer wasn't such a retard with the gonadal shielding we could check out your sacral obliquity.
