[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case and reports with diligence. As per your x-ray report there is severe degenerative scoliosis. Check your bone strength with DEXA SCAN and you can start medication according to level of osteoporosis, I will advise you to do MRI spine to see for any disc bulge or spinal canal stenosis. I will advise you to do regular physiotherapy and exercises as my patients find much relief by these therapies. You may consult physiotherapist for guidance. He may start TENS, or ultrasound which is helpful in your case you need to take diet rich in calcium and vitamin D. If curve is not correctable then surgical correction will help. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. If you find this answer helpful do not hesitate to rate this answer at end of discussion. Wishing you good health. Take care
