Scheuermann's Disease Support Group

Hey iv been diagnosed with scheuermann's disease last Tuesday . Can people give me tips on how 2 handle the pain and the risks and dangers or surgery its been on my mind alot

please leave a comment .

Hi! I am glad your here! We also have a group on FB called Hump Back Peeps! I am not sure on how to tell you to deal with your pain as I did not have any pre-op. Ice! Heat! Accupuncter and Massage! I think it is normal to have anxiety and fear associated with any big surgery. I know I had my share and ended up on Zanax to help with the anxiety. Keep the lines of communication open with your doc and ask LOTS of questions! They have come such along way in surgery's that they are mointoring you constantly. Good Luck! Where are you seeing a doc at?

thanks dude. Its just the pain its unbelievable cant do stuff i use 2 because it :/

yea i know exactly what that felt like. I had surgery a year ago now on august 10. I still have occasional neck pain but rarely ever any back pain. Just weird feelings in my back because the nerves are regenerating. I had surgery at Barnes Jewish Hospital in St.Louis,MO under Dr. keith Bridwell. He is an awesome surgeon by the way in cause your looking for one.
