Is a 90 degree angle in scoliosis bad and is it considered a disability?
Yes it is quite severe. Anything over 70 degrees is considered severe scoliosis. And yes it is considered a disability, especially if it keeps you from working.
Should you Get a scoliosis brace or sergury?
It really depends on how bad the scoliosis is and what your doctor recommends. If you have between 15 and 20 degrees it won't be much of a problem but if its from 20 to 35 degrees of an angle, you might meed a brace, and if there is anymore of a curve you would need to consider surgery.
What is a Cobb angle?
Cobb angle-- A measure of the curvature of scoliosis, determined by measurements made on x rays.
What narcotic pain relievers are best for scoliosis?
Any strong narcotic will be helpful in hiding the symptoms but not in treating scoliosis. Look into epidural steroid injection and/or chiropractic intervention. For some minor scoliosis (under 35 degrees Cobb angle), acupuncture and massage have been shown to even reduce the angle by about 10 degrees! Of course, everyone would like narcotics, but you cannot be on them forever. They are only given when nothing else works and MDs are very careful before prescribing them. To answer your question directly, oxycodone is the best. Take care, Ziad
