Spine curve - scoliosis?

RubyGlee · 2017-10-23 22:01:42

I noticed my daughter spine seemed a strange, not straight slightly curved. She is 13. Mentioned it to gp today when she was there for her asthma. She is being sent for an x Ray. Should I be worried about this? Also how much is a back x Ray usually? I don’t no if my insurance will cover as there is nothing about x rays in…

Also how much is a back x Ray usually? I don’t no if my insurance will cover as there is nothing about x rays in the policy.
Any info greatly appreciated.

Mod note

You can ask about scoliosis in general but specific medical advice about your daughter is not allowed.
Ask your GP re specific concerns.
