I have read different things about OBPI and scoliosis and I am wondering if they frequently go hand in hand (something I read recently led me to believe that it is *very* common for kiddos w/OBPI to develop scoliosis)?
TIA!

Re: OBPI and scoliosis
I asked my therapist about this. She too had scoliosis. I also read about scoliosis in erb's palsy injuries. I read a "good" majority of kids with this injury get it. THere is a website. I believe it is around 25% of all kids get some form of spine curvature.
