Only if infancy.

If you are born with it, and the severity is enough to have surgery needed, and the surgery is not given, then yes.

What is the prognosis of mild scoliosis?

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. :)
