[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 300701, member: 1963"] Fran is right. Back 45 years ago when I was starting school, they used to screen for scoliosis as part of the entry-exams. Kids with bad scoliosis were put into something called a Milwaukee Brace which was supposed to help the spine straighten as it grew. Mine never bothered me until I started spending so much time hunched in front of first a computer terminal and later more modern keyboards. The sitting position put a lot of strain on that part of my back. I was extremely active and up until then noticed no problems. I notice it now because it put add'l strain on my neck and it's gotten arthritic. My advice to Cory is to see a spinal specialist and to seriously look into physical therapy. It is likely, given the arm trouble, that he's been straining his body in unusual ways and PT can help with that. [/QUOTE]
