Hi,
It seems that your son has scoliosis, but we need MRI scan to guide you properly. If there is scoliosis then definitely it should be corrected else he has to face the back pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Jaideep Gaver, Orthopedic Surgeon
