Thanks for writing to us. Did scoliosis usually leads to back pain and leg pain. It's important to examine the patient to diagnose the problem. I think she needs to get a MRI to know if any nerve is getting pressed. If she has only pain but no weakness then pain medicine and physical therapy will help. I would suggest consulting a spine specialist first. Thanks.
