Dr. Keerthi, I am a 61 year old male who had a cervical CT scan in 2009. I had mild degenerative disc disease and ligament calcification beginning. Today I retrieved a recent CT scan that lists levoscoliosis with narrowing on the right side of three vertebrae. In 2013, I was hit broadsided on the right rear door of a Crown Victory and was swung into a Mercy Marquis of the same size, my rear drivers side to its front. Both of those cars were totaled. On impact my body was thrown hard left and my head went right with the airbag knocking me senseless in the process. The ER exam showed the degenerative disc issue, but no visible injuries otherwise, so the pain was ruled soft tissue inflammation. In the two years since, my neck pain has steadily increased and I requested this recent CT to figure out why; I am very proactive in my healthcare. I have osteopenia of the spine and osteoporosis in other areas as well as suffering from cervical, thoracic and lumbar arthritis for many years. X-rays, CT scans and MRI s have never shown indications of scoliosis until now. Everything I read on these Q&A postings from doctors state the scoliosis had to have been present prior to the accident and was activated by it. My spine glows in the dark from all the x-rays and CT scans over the years. Had it been present, it would have been found. So, my question is this, should I not go forward and have a specialist investigate to see if this scoliosis was from the accident? With the presence of osteopenia in my cervical spine, and the narrowing on the right side of three vertebrae, the trauma from this accident could well have been the source of the onset. If this is impossible, please advise so I can stop searching for answers. Thank You PEM2015
