    Scoliosis

    Well this condition is getting more airtime now since the discovery of Richard the Third’s body and the picture of the operation scar on Princess Eugenie. I developed scoliosis in the 1960s at about 13 or 14 years of age. I had no corrective surgery and as a result I have a permanently deformed spine. Things could be worse but I have no scars.

    Sorry to hear that Outwood mate,like you say it could have been worse..Guess that was a sign of the times when nobody knew how to cure it.. I'd never heard of it until my missus told me about it when I asked her what was up with her back..

    I still don't know why she thought everyone would like to see her scar?

    Not referring to you of course Outwood but I have read the cause of most cases is unknown, but is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Risk factors include other affected family members. The Royal Family being a collection of in- breds might have something to do with it, no doubt?
