It was discovered that I had scoliosis a few years ago. I have been wearing a backbrace regularly for a couple of years now. I take it off for an hour or two a day. I get this loss of touch in the outside of my upper right thigh sometimes. Do you think the brace could be pinching a nerve or something?

Its possible, I hope you've told your doctor, some adjustment may be necessary. See if massage therapy is OK for you it might help if he says its nothing serious.

My two sisters have it (we are in our 30's). One sister is not bad, my other sister has a hunch back. Sad because she's so beautiful.
I see a chiropractor who specializes in atlas orthogonality. He can help you. To find one near you, visit this website : http://www.atlasorthogonality.com/
There is NO manipulation. The brace could be causing issues that may not be reversible.

Have yopu told the doctor aho provided you with the brace.
I think that that would be a wise move.
Loss of sensation is usually due to nerve damage.
PLEASE ASK YOUR DOCTORS ADVICE
