I am waiting for an appointment from my doctor but I would like to see if anyone knows about this. Basically over time my back has become more curved in a kyphosis way but doesn't look too bad, I am in constant pain though and it's getting worse I now have like a lumped bone before my neck which then bends and by night feels like my neck can't hold my head up and it's painful and if I lay on my back it feels like I struggle to breathe so I lay on my side but all through the night and even in the day my back makes crunching noises quite loud, I have creaky wrists too but nothing like my back. I am worried this is just going to get worse and atm I'm on no medication but feeling like I may be needing some due to this pain! My brother has kyphoscoliosis but severe and my mother has arthritis and osteoporosis?
