Yes, scoliosis can affect the stomach, bowels, and gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The curvature of the spine may cause compression or displacement of internal organs, potentially leading to digestive issues such as difficulty swallowing, bloating, or constipation. In severe cases, it can also impact the function of the diaphragm, affecting respiration and further complicating GI symptoms. However, the extent of these effects varies among individuals and depends on the severity of the scoliosis.
