No. Scoliosis is not something you 'catch' or something like a virus, flu, or, as in the case of magic mushrooms, a poison. Scoliosis is the side to side curvature or curve of the back. It is passed down hereditary from mother to daughter, but as in my case, the curve is not noticeable and the scoliosis is mild My daughter has a much greater curve and will require treatment.
