It could be worse. You need to use a brace to keep your spine from becoming more curved if you are still growing. If you stopped growing and it is at an 18 degree angle it might be to late to use a brace and if it worsen's to say a 45 degree angle it could mean you need to have surgery done to prevent being in a wheel chair the rest of your life.

Is it dangerous to have dextroscoliosis of the thoracic spine and levoscoliosis of the lumbar spine?
Dangerous? Well... I had this about 15 years ago and I am still alive. 46 degree curve to the right for the lumbar and 18 degree curve to the left in thoracic. The Lumbar curve was eventually corrected with surgery/rods/screws. I'm still stuck with the upper curve, and have lots of muscle pain, nerve pain, headaches, back pain, fibromyalgia, and bad posture.... ya.... at least I'm alive and not dying though!
Is it bad to have a 10 percent curve in your back?
Probably not, most people have a minor scoliotic curve in their spine. Although, it can also depend on how old you are. If you are not yet skeletally mature (less than 18 years old) a small curve has the potential to progress. The risk of progression also seems to be more likely if you are a female. That all being said, my opinion is this: - If you are an adult...dont worry about it unless it is causing you pain, then i would advise a visit to a chiropractor. - If you are an adolescent (less than 18 years old) then I would definitely advise a visit to a chiropractor who can monitor the curve, provide stretches and exercises to limit progression, treat discomfort associated with the scoliosis, provide advice on treatment options if the curve progresses, etc.
