anyone know anything about Scheuermann's disease?

[Traveller]

Scheuermann's Disease, like many other diseases, has a large variance in the severity between cases. There are treatments available, depending on how bad her case is and what her symptoms are. She really needs to go back and speak to her doctor to get her answers questions. Perhaps you could go with her, and take a list of questions so you don't forget to ask anything that is concerning her?

I recently had a CT scan that determined I had old but well healed Scheuermanns disease. As far as I know its a spine deformity that happens in childhood. i think it's a genetic thing. I also have scoliosis, I believe it's all related.

Best she see's her Dr or a specialist. Hopefully it's mild.
