I am so glad I came across your video, I have scoliosis and struggle with how my back looks and clothes not fitting properly, I don't need surgery but in a lot of pain it is nice to see that there are other people out there in a similar situation as I dont know many people that have it
you can't even imagine how happy it makes me feel seeing someone talk about scoliosis and their experiences with it!! Im a young teen who's been struggling with severe scoliosis for a long time (and im currently waiting for surgery!) I've been insecure about it but now I feel a lot better thanks to videos like this ❤❤
I've always been insecure of my body, I'm only 15 years old and my parents are too broke for any treatment, and everyone is too busy to help me and all I've ever wanted was to look normal like other girls. Watching this video really made me set on trying to find help in some way. your videos really inspire me because they make me feel like one day I will actually be as confident as you. My back usually hurts really really bad occasionally, if I twist my back to crack it, I can hear the air leaving my lungs, which is actually terrifying for me sometimes. I feel like at this point of my life right now, I'm not sure what I can do but wait and pray to finally be treated. thank you for your inspiration.
Oh my gosh! You're the first content creator I've seen who openly talks about scoliosis....I had surgery two years ago and while I'm confident in my skin I still hit rough patches every once in a while...thank you for being a voice. I wish I had you when I was younger--what an empowering person you are. :)
I'm so so happy to finally see a creator who talks about scoliosis. I have severe scoliosis and I am only 15, it's been hard to love my back as it is but seeing you talk about it makes me feel so much better
IM 15 too ..have scolosis....but In the past few months ...I've improved my posture quite a bit...but still a lot more to go ....hope I can overcome it...well good luck to y'all:)
scoliosis sucks! i just finished recovering from my fusion, and watching your videos have been such an amazing help and inspiration to me. thanks for sharing your story
i'm 21 and was diagnosed when i was a few months old. i was always told i stuck my bum out. i'm glad someone else understands the pain of trying to explain its literally just my posture. curve girls inside and out
7:14 beautifully said, but as someone with a body dysmorphic parent, I decided to think to myself “My body is the vessel that lets me do the things I love, and I will reward it well. Be it eating well, or moving.” I have gone as far as arguing with anyone trying to project their dysmorphia or food restrictions on me, telling them to keep that toxic thinking to themselves because I am having none of it. I think I was quiet enough as a kid, not anymore.
im 13 and i also like just got out of a scoliosis surgery almost a month ago and its really cool that i found another person who also did the same surgery as me and it makes me happy that ur talking about this
You're a beautiful woman. I enjoyed hearing your story of overcoming your struggles and giving others courage with their lives. Also, ignore the haters' comments they just have nothing better to do. I wish you the best.
You dont even know how thankful i am for you to be speaking about this stuff. I had my scoliosis surgery about two weeks ago i am currently 14 years old and my doctor found out when i was 12. From time my back was getting worse so i had to get a surgery obviously..... I think this was the most difficult time of my life and i am so glad that i can finally like live and be free from it 😂. And thank you this video made me even more confident about my back and my journey i hope you're doint great
Love your videos. You are amazing and inspiring. I too have a spinal issue due to AS (ankylosis spondylitis) and hated annoying comments about my posture. No matter what, you are still beautiful. Don’t let the trolls bring you down and stop you from living your life to the fullest. Wear whatever clothes makes you happiest and looks fabulous.
Samee!! I never knew i was diagnosed with scoliosis tbh, untill the day i couldnt breath. I didnt even know i had health issues AT ALL! so ill tell u the story. So for a few months, my back was hurting, and my chest was really like.. someone was trying to stab u uk? And then, my mum turned the AC for me, but instead i cooled off, i started sweating and mum took me to the hospital. When we were doing the x ray for lungs- heart, the doctor told mom "hey.. i see a curve in her waist. If u see the x ray, youll realize theres a curve." I had NO IDEA what was scoliosis. Untill i searched it up and saw my spine in the x ray. I was luterally traumatized. I was only 11 and had it for half a year and NEVER knew untill augest 25. I was scared i was gonna get bullied bc alot of things changed in my life. I cant do activities such as basket ball, or anything bending down. I would get really sad and disappointed in myself. And it was the reason bc i grew too fast. Im 5'3 at 12 years old.. and i hate being like that. But with u, u make me feel happy:) and the curve was 17 degrees, on the ribs wich causes LOTSSS of breathing problems, and had a huge allergy in my heart wich im allergic to forest, trees, prolly even leaves and flowers, everything nature like grass im allergic and would suffocate. And dust.
I had to wear a back brace until I stopped growing but I was embarrassed of wearing it to school, so I'd only wear it to sleep. Don't know if the brace would've helped prevent my back from getting worse but my back makes me feel a bit insecure about my body... would've loved to be a few inches taller too, which would be the case if I didn't have scoliosis.. My parents were sick of hearing about my scoliosis when the doctor determined the only solution now was surgery (and that my curve was severe), so I was never treated on :( my parents said I could do it as an adult if I decided to. I'm 29 now. I don't feel back pain or anything for the most part, so that's my main hesitation to not get back surgery. But my body does look crooked
Girl, I'm in the same situation. I hated to use a back brace. I cried because it hurt so much on the hips and I couldn't really breath with it. I was also wearing it at night but it didn't help much tho. My parents and I then moved back to our home country and I never had a treatment again on it and I grew out of the brack brace so I didn't wear it anymore. I am now back in the country where I got the treatment when I first was diagnosed with it but I'm afraid to go to the doctor and to hear that I need to get the surgery. I work in a bakery and you stand a lot, walk a lot and sometimes you grab heavy things that goes straight into your back. I'm afraid my work made it worse and that I can't work there anymore. I don't have a lot of back pain, it's just sometimes when I'm standing to much in work. But I also hate seeing me in the mirror with that curve, standing like whatever stands like that and yeah... You're not alone
I got told I have scoliosis this week (I was so shocked lol) I’m 27 and the doctor gave me zerooo information. Does it get worse with age now I’ve stopped growing?! Xx
My doc told me that before it was believed that it stops progressing after you are done growing but that he personally witnessed a lot of cases where it kept worsening soo theres not really a way to tell sadly
If you have a curve greater than 45-50 degrees, there's a big chance the curve will get worse even in adulthood. I had 75° when I was 18,but at 21 I found out that it progressed up to 85°,so I got the surgery
I am curious does it affect pregnancy? Life if you got surgery, does it make pregnancy painful or hard ? What if your scoliosis is untreated then does it affect pregnancy?
I was told by my doctor that if you have a severe curve at the bottom part of your spine where your stomach is located it will affect pregnancy, so it’s best to get it treated. Not sure about the surgery part tho.

Omg I didn't know you can't skydive ever if you get back surgery... definitely need to do that before if I get surgery
Well, u definitely looks like a princess. I don't get why u would ever be insecure about ur looks. But we are crazy sometimes🧡

I have it tooo currently getting treatment exercises I get anxious abt wearing crop tops because of it
Can you please tell me do u feel like your back is stiff when u bent down as like it's straight and don't form a curve hump when you bent down?
I got told I have scoliosis this week (I was so shocked lol) I’m 27 and the doctor gave me zerooo information. Does it get worse with age now I’ve stopped growing?! Xx
