Is Boniva Generic Recommended When Suffering From Scoliosis Of Neck And Back??

I am taking a Boniva generic once a month 150 mg tablet. I am experiencing pain below my hip bones on both sides but a little more on my left side. I have scoliosis in my neck , back and lower back. I exercise 3 times a week in a gym and walk 2 miles every day. I am 55 and weigh 105 and am 5ft. and 1 inch tall. I do lunges and squats as part of my exercise routine. I'm wondering if it's the exercise or the pills that are causing the problem?

HI
Well come to HCM
Scoliosis is the congenital disease of the spines which is not in normal straight position but goes in to three dimensional deformity that means it shape changed which looks like "S" or "a" shapes in imaging study, this may not be congenital some time but may be idiopathic and this again sub-divided in different class, late onset may not be harmful, (Initially) but in late life this could cause cardio-pulmonary disability some this could be self limiting and does not need any treatment, complication of this are very rare, scoliosis may be genetically related, physiotherapy self care is must, in severe case surgical intervention is the option, medicine has got no role here, hope this information helps.
