Do you have scoliosis if:

-you have the wing bone in the shoulders equal (I don't really know cuz I think one of my shoulder muscles is more prominent than the other, i guess)

-You have equal hip height

-equal shoulder blade level

-One nipple slightly lower than the other (i am not sure in this one cuz one of mine has a oval shape and the other a circular shape so I don't know if one is really higher than the other)

-If you touch your backbone from top to bottom and you feel only one smooth curve (if you go all the way down, you can feel every vertebra although some are not completely aligned)

I do not know about any of the symptoms besides the last one. You could not detect scoliosis on yourself because you could cause a curve in you spine by reaching you arm around to fell it. The best way to test for scoliosis is to stand facing someone else, bend over at the waist, and have the other person look and see it you spine is straight when you are bent over. If it appears crooked then you could have scoliosis and should probably ask you doctor about it.
