Over 70 degrees is really bad! You should get surgery. That is the thing I recommend the most for you. Your spine could crush your heart and organs and you could die. Get surgery!

How dangerous is scoliosis?
It can be dangerous to have a levoscoliosis. They are considered more dangerous than a dextro curve due to their possible involvement with te heart. The heart lies more on the left side of your thoracic cavity and thus a left curve causes more of a complication.

What will affect the heart?

Does 45 degree scoliosis effect lung capacity?
When curvature is severe and located in the thoracic and cervical regions, scoliosis can impinge on the space that houses the heart and lungs. In severe cases, lung or heart capacity can be compromised, causing shortness of breath or heart problems, thereby necessitating more aggressive treatment. When scoliosis deforms the ribs, this can cause similar problems. In very severe cases, patients with diminished lung capacity must use supplemental oxygen.

What causes scoliosis not including idopathic scoliosis?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ this is actually incorrect. IDIOPATHIC SCOLIOSIS HAS NO KNOWN CAUSE you CANNOT get it from 'bending over too much' or 'carrying a heavy bag' you will get it regardless. other forms of scoliosis however have known causes yes it happens more in girls than boys, 2% of healthy boys will get scoliosis where as the percentge of girls is much much higher when i say healthy boys, i mean boys who have no health problems / disabilities scoliosis seems to go hand in hand with heart conditions other muscular diseases such as muscular distrophy / ostrophy etc. people often perk up at that when i say 'health problems' note, this does not include any mental illnesses such as depression or anxiety. mostly just heart and muscle conditions. (although scoliosis can cause other mental conditions to arise, sadly)
Can scoliosis be transmitted?
No, scoliosis is not contagious. The majority of scoliosis is termed idiopathic, which means that the medical community does not know what causes it. The majority of scoliosis in adolescents is idiopathic. There are congenital causes of scoliosis which often cause patients to have large curves at a very young age due to malformed vertebrae. These scolioses can be associated with spinal cord abnormalities as well as heart and kidney problems. Neuromuscular scoliosis occurs in patients who have abnormal nerve and/or spinal cord function such as in cerebral palsy, spina bifida, or spinal cord injury. Adult scoliosis can be from an adolescent scoliosis, or it can be what is termed a degenerative scoliosis. Scoloiosis is viewed (in general) as a lateral curvature of the spine with an axial twist that causes a distortion of the ribs. Majority of the cases scoliosis is called idiopathic, which means that the medical community does not know what causes it. There have been recent studies that suggest that there is a genetic component to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Neuromuscular scoliosis occurs as a result of abnormalities in nerve function which control the trunk musculature, such as spina bifida and cerebral palsy.
Can scoliosis affect your singing?
Unfortunately.. Yes. Singing is breathing, breathing is posture. But it's not hopeless. A lot of people sing with proper technique yet do not all sound the exact same. You can take a handful of singing instructors and ask them to describe the feel and you'll be surprised at the different answers. The reason for this is because they are not all clones with the same body and posture. The smallest thing can change the way somebody stands and feels their body. Scoliosis is not a small thing and may change the technique quite a bit. The hard part is that you don't want to find a style that will encourage your scoliosis to increase and you don't want to find a style that is out of reach for your unique body alignment. There is no reason that you can't find "your" technique though. If you are truly serious about this.. dig into what Germany is up to. Good luck with finding your singing voice.
