Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Is this " tedhi medhi" look worsening over the years?

It appears u might have scoliosis, a condition of bent spine. U need to consult an orthopedician to identify where ur problem lies - whether in the spine, hips, legs or the entire body itself. Have u been examined by an orthopedician before? if yes, has he seen ur back and spine and taken an x-ray of the same? Let me know, so i can help u better
