Does a scoliosis back brace stick out of any parts of your body when you wear it?

it really depends on what kind of scoliosis it is, and how bad it is. Generally, the doctors will probably do their best to make it in the shape of your body, with different shapes of padding inside of the brace instead of outside of the brace.

Do you have to wear a brace after scoliosis surgery?
After scoliosis surgery, it depends where they fused/placed the rods/screws...I had scoliosis surgery and I can crack the TOP half of my spine, but, the screws are at the bottom of my back and I am unable to crack it there. :)
Can scoliosis worsen even after wearing a brace?
Most definitely. I wear a back brace currently and it straitens my back while I'm wearing it , but doesn't stop its curve for good. After two nights without it it will continue to grow.
Does scoliosis worsen over time?
Scoliosis can worsen if it isn't taken care of properly. Go to your doctor and talk to him/her about physical therapy, and if your condition is really bad, maybe a brace for your back will help.

It is the most common brace used for halting spine curvature in people with scoliosis (though it typically doesn't correct existing curves).
