You should consult a doctor first before trying anything. If your sister was diagnosed with scoliosis, then maybe you also have it. Scoliosis is genetic and it is possible that you are having it. Just tell your parents that you want to go to the doctor and have a medical opinion about your pain.

tell your parents this is real. tell them you are concerned and just want to speak to the doctor about it to make sure it's nothing (even thought it might not be EXACTLY the way you feel.
if that doesn't work...
is there a nurse at school you can speak with?
