Famous people with scoliosis - Kurt Cobain
In an interview with Jon Savage, Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain said:
“My body is damaged from music in two ways: not only has my stomach inflamed from irritation, but I have scoliosis. I had minor scoliosis in junior high, and since I’ve been playing guitar ever since, the weight of the guitar has made my back grow in this curvature. So when I stand, everything is sideways. It’s weird… I go to a chiropractor every once in a while. You can’t really correct scoliosis, because it’s a growth in the spine. Your spine grows through your adolescent years in a curvature. Most people have a small curvature in their spine anyhow, though some people have it really bad and have to wear metal braces. It gives me a back pain all the time. That really adds to the pain in our music. It really does. I’m kind of grateful for it.”
