I'm 42 yrs old. I wore a brace for scoliosis when I was a teenager, but I still have about a 30 degree curvature. In spite of that, I was still able to be fairly successful as a TV news cameraman, lifting and carrying up to 75 lbs of equipment on a daily basis. But of course my back still gets irritated often. I usually deal with it by doing various strength and back cracking exercises.
My question is, if I were to get spinal correction surgery, how long would it take to recover, and would I ever be able to go back to doing the kind of work that I do now?
