Back pain

I was involved in a car accident when I was 18 (9 years ago) and I had to see a orthopeadic doctor to exmaine my resulting injuries for a compensation claim. I re read it today, as I found it amoungst some old paperwork and it said I had ‘slightly kyphotic dorsal spine’ and mentioned the possiblity of Shheuermans disease.Needless to say I never really took much notice but when think back, I’ve always had terrible posture, I have frequent uncomfortable back ache, I feel I hunch over alot of the time. I’m now concerned being young and silly I didn’t get this claim checked out and I feel it someting I shoud see my doctor about as im worried this could get worse as I get older.Please advise me as im really worried.Many thanksEmma
