There is no concrete evidence to support that scoliosis is hereditary, however, surgeons are carrying out a lot of research at the Scottish Texas Rite hospital, they are looking at the gene CHD-7
Congenital Scoliosis is a lateral abnormal curve of the spine, resulting from disruption of normal vertebral development
scoliosis is a disorder but it is not a genetic disorder.
you can develop scoliosis after you are born. so the answer is no.
Absolutely! Scoliosis can totally be inherited. If a parent has scoliosis or has the recessive gene for it, the child can inherit it.
my grandfather had levo scoliosis and my mother has it they got it when they got older they are of Scottish decent. is this hereditary?

A mild convex right thoracic scoliosis is when the spine is curved toward the right. It can be seen on an x-ray of the spine.

It can I have mild scoliosis and I have noticed when my back hurts is when some of the swelling starts.
Yes. Having scoliosis does not, in and of itself, rule out this procedure (espcially if the scoliosis is mild - which it is in most cases).
It is mild. It might look somthing like this - /
It depends, scoliosis can be mild, and also to a certain extent, fatal. Well, it's the curvature of the spine, depending on the curve itself, you can determine how bad it is...Overall, scoliosis is a very scary thing anyway...If it a visible, it is more than mild. Scoliosis can prevent normal walking, sitting, running, moving, and many other things. I am not sure if you or someone you know has it, but be sure, if you haven't, to NOT ignore it. But then again, I don't know if anything can be done....See a doctor. And if you just wanted to know, then I hope I helped. :)
Well, scoliosis is a curvature of the spine. The cervicothoracic part deals with the location of the curve. The cervical region is the neck, and the thoracic is the upper back. So the cervicothoracic scoliosis would be a curvature of the spine in the neck/upper back

If your scoliosis is mild then you should just do exercises aproved by a doctor for scoliosis. If it is severse then you should either wear a backbrace to keep it from getting worse or get surgery. Scoliosis can cause backpain. Try to keep a good posture to stop your pain!!
mild thoracic typically refers to a curvature 20 degrees or less on the Cobb angle measurement scale. Although this form of scoliosis can be mild, it may still cause pain and other symptoms. It is also possible for the curve to progress over time.
