    the only way to know for sure is to get an x-ray at the doctors.
    but in a screening they have you (in just your underwear) bend over touching your fingers to your toes. have someone look at your spine to see if it looks curved.
    also, if it turns out you do have scoliosis, do yourself a favor and DO the exercises they tell you to do and if you have to wear a brace, DO IT. i know someone who now as an adult in her 20’s has to have surgery because she didn’t do those things and her curve got worse. now she is hunched to the side.
