I was diagnosed with minor scoliosis, could this be related to my heavy breast? 5’2/137lb/34DD-DDD
Answer: Can my DDD cup heavy breasts cause scoliosis? Thank you for your question. The short answer is no, the heavy breast weight cannot cause scoliosis. However, you may have other conditions that are related to your heavy breasts that may be helped with a breast reduction. Make sure you see a local plastic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery for a consultation to discuss your options.Good luck!Dallas R.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Can my DDD cup heavy breasts cause scoliosis? Overly large breasts can make a woman feel extremely self-conscious about herself in public and can cause back and neck problems because of the strain put on the spinal cord along with poor posture. Heavy breasts are not the cause of idiopathic scoliosis whose cause is unknown. Recent studies have found some genetic evidence linked to scoliosis.Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Can my DDD cup heavy breasts cause scoliosis? While large breasts can cause / contribute to back, neck and shoulder pain, they will not cause scoliosis. If you are experiencing these symptoms, or just desire smaller breasts, I would recommend that you consult with board-certified plastic surgeons experienced at performing breast reductions. They will be able to discuss the procedure with you in detail, including the risks and benefits.Best wishes.

Answer: Can my DDD cup heavy breasts cause scoliosis? No. Scoliosis is a type of abnormal curvature of the spine. Mostly- congenital factors cause the abnormalities. The propensity for this is usually present at birth and manifests itself as the individual grows. Breast reduction is the procedure of choice to reduce large, pendulous breasts. I suggest that you seek an experienced Board Certified PS for in person exam
