Symptoms can include uneven shoulder blades (like Hamlin has), one hip appearing higher than the other, jutting ribs, or one shoulder blade sticking out further than the other. Also like Hamlin, roughly 23% of those with scoliosis have pain. Most cases are relatively mild, though, and many with it can go on to live fairly normal lives with little to no pain, according to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases<\/a>. <\/p>\n While discussing her scoliosis on Instagram is new territory for Hamlin, her sister, Amelia, has also made a nod to the condition. In 2018, she posed an image of herself sporting a bikini and with one hip noticeably higher than the other. In the Instagram caption<\/a>, she wrote "I think I need a scoliosis doc." <\/p>\n While the cause of scoliosis is mostly unknown, the condition can be treated with observation by a doctor, physical therapy (in Hamlin's case, working with an osteopath), and in more severe situations, wearing a brace or getting spinal decompression surgery to help correct the spinal misalignment and ease pain. <\/p>\n Delilah-Hamlin-Scoliosis-Embed-Screen Shot 2021-05-21 at 10.04.50 AM<\/span> on May 21.

(Per Mayo Clinic<\/a>, an osteopath is a fully trained physician who may also provide manual therapies, such as spinal manipulation or massage therapy, to ease musculoskeletal disorders like scoliosis.) "I don't know what [I'd] do without her!" Hamlin added.<\/p>\n
