It might, but you should have a braceing or even surgery before it gets that bad. Scoliosis is not likely to case pain in young patients, but if it grows, it should be braced.

Yes it can, I was diagnosed with scoliosis at 10 and wore a back-brace for years. The scoliosis has also deformed my ribs, which causes problems with my lungs, for me, it's not constant, rarely I have shortness of breath, pain while breathing in and out or pressure in my chest (like the wind is knocked out of me). All of these only last for a few seconds at a time (maybe a minute) and not daily, sometimes not even weekly. I was told by my doctor that this is fine unless it gets worse. But I would suggest talking to your doctor about it, your situation may be worse or different than mine. Hope I helped and good luck!

Are breathing problems related to scoliosis?

Yes, breathing problems can be related to scoliosis, particularly in cases where the curvature of the spine is severe. This spinal deformity can affect the rib cage's shape and movement, potentially restricting lung capacity and impairing respiratory function. Individuals with significant scoliosis may experience shortness of breath or other respiratory issues, especially during physical activity. However, the degree of impact varies based on the severity of the curvature and individual health factors.
